Thanks much for the info. Where is it documented? I tried using the 'help' command at the console to get a list of properties in case there is anything else I might wish to set but no joy.

This RSS feed business definitely has me miffed although I am not certain how sensible being miffed is. I may decide that I am being like one of those daft geezers who throw a fit because someone linked to his publically accessible web page without his explicit permission. Or I may decide that I am justified in my upset and do something like friends-lock my LJ or just abandon it.

Meanwhile I think it is the being blindsided and my perception that LJ officialdom gives an insufficient damn.

Thanks again.
