When I left work on Thursday, I forgot to logout. When I go back to work Monday morning, I found that I was still logged in. I thought that the system would log you out automatically after 10-15 minutes.
I do stay logged on all day while at work, so this isn't a big problem, I was just curious.
Plus, I don't want anybody out there to think that I don't have any kind of life other that this :-) .
Thanks,

Craig,
I assure you it only appeared that you were still logged in. Your login info is saved on the cookie on the PC so, unless you logout, anytime you bring up the site (or any of it's pages) you are automatically recognized as a valid logged-in user. If you had gone to a PC that didn't have that cookie and checked the site you would not have seen your name.

Cheers,
Jim
