OR, since most all Admins are not avail on calendar

What do you mean?  The absence schedule only shows when we are absent, not when we are present.  So when the absence schedule is empty it means that we are around.
Yes Brell, but remember, when WE newbies go to that calendar.......here is a cut & paste of that calendar......

Absence schedule
Feb 15th, 2007, 3:47am   brell

When NEWBIES, are trying to post & we cannot do that unless we go thru Admin's first.
Now look at the above calendar.  REMEMBER TO THINK LIKE A NEWBIE.
Under the verbage

Absence Schedule

 is a date and time, Feb 07.....After we do not get a response, we go back to that page & study it and panic that all these people have been absent since 2007.  

I hope that this clears up why there is a confusion.

It would be great if along side of the name of the person they would state a time frame of absent.  ie: gone from June 20th to Aug 15th 2008.

Also, it would be great for the newbie, who does not know how to navigate on a forum, if there would also be an additional link provided with:  

use this link only if all admin's are on vacation

 so that they can actually get a reply.
