4:00 AM EST 		I lost my tab when seeing if my release candidate two of Firefox 1.5 worked the way she described. Did not seem to have the option to clone the tab under the menu upon a right click. Forgetting the middle button is a tab killer I lost the article. Hence, I just tried to return - now it's a related site that wants a sign in with no obvious link to the article of interest.
