Lightbulb you can still get your post back...

I appreciate the hint, Chemar. This happens to me a lot.
Didn't know about the "remember me"..

But I discovered two ways to avoid losing the post when the
log out happens.

1) Log in at that screen, and carefully hit "back" two (or three times--I forget which). If you have NOT made a keystroke after logging back in, you can get back to your reply box with the post still in it.

2) also...you can open a new window as soon as the log out happens, and log in there. Then return to your reply box and hit submit.

Also when I now post long posts, and type a bit, and submit. Then I go to edit function and type some more and submit, etc until I am finished. So in essence there are 3 ways to save your work.
