Perhaps a few fewer sections ... I'm suffering information overload.

Also, is there a way to not have multiple 'headlines' in the MJ section consumed by multiple posts in the same thread?  (Don't know the tech behind, why I'm asking.)

It looks good, but I would recommend tightening everything up a bit, IMO there seems to be a bit too much padding between the lines.
