I was doing a bit of updating on the book review thread title page... and I'm getting concerned the post is going to meltdown at some point.  It actually lags (sometimes significantly) when editing it.   I do think people use it, so it's worth keeping up.   But I think it needs to not be that much data in one post.

Some possibilities:

-split it into 2 posts (I think the 'recommendations page can go without to much trouble, I suspect at this point alot of those are in the thread reviewed anyway).
This is the easiest to do but also the least effective... it feels like it's just kicking the can down the road until we fill up two posts.

-Use a separate thread for the index (perhaps stickied)  Then it can be nicely divided, with no concern of space, but is decidedly less convienent.

-move the first couple reviews/posts and use multiple posts (I think 4 would be ideal).   This would probably be plenty of space for a long time, and wouldn't be too much trouble to just copy/paste a post or two to the end.

-I'm wrong that people use it and just forget it.

Any thoughts?

I would also love if any one had any brilliant idea on data parsing... I would love to create and share some stats on the thread, but seems really difficult to parse the list.
