I choose to read the Zone uncluttered by frills; in other words: compact layout, standard text size, light on grey.

Beginning yesterday, the Off-Topic board has been displaying at the "larger" text size (which, combined with my browser settings, also turns root posts bold). The other boards are not affected.

I just took a look at the Zone using IE, and it seems to be behaving consistently across the boards (no pun intended) ... so I can't guess what the problem is with OT in FF.

But since we're talking about settings: why, Robert, do HZ's cookies expire? It's a minor annoyance to re-do the display settings every so often, but it is an annoyance.
