    I rewrote everything yesterday and today -- not to do anything different -- but to do what it does already with fewer resources extracted from SN. Today however, I ran both processes so it has a heavy day with the duplication. This was necessary in order to avoid missing a large tranche of posts and to also keep track of what I've already reviewed so I don't duplicate. Anyway, I have my new baseline in my new system and I'm good to go from now on.

    What I really like about this new system is that I'll be able to track changes to the moderation levels of posts over time -- not at the granular level that clicking the post id gives -- but the change in score and tag published in the comments section of a story or journal entry at my snapshot time from day to day. That will give me the chance to instantly know without manually looking, whether posts that had not been downmodded when I first reviewed them, become downmodded at a later date. In my previous system, once I had examined a post, I did not return to it. This left a hole which modbombers could exploit -- now filled.
