Is there an RSS feed for these forums?

Instead of logging into the website, it would be nice if the messages came to me via an RSS feed. Does this website support feeds?
Thanks,

Hi Nestsman,
Geoff, the administrator in charge of the IT end of the website, is on vacation at this time. He should be back soon and hopefully will address your question.

Geoff is back, and has no idea what an RSS feed is. I guess knowing what it is, leads to knowing whether we can or will have such. As it is a product of phpbb, I can look on their support forum.
It appears there is a hack, now you need to convince me its going to be used by more than yourself.
love,
Geoff.

RSS feeds are becoming more and more popular all the time. You can set one up on specific items you are looking for on ebay. You can create one at news.google.com to obtain the kind of articles you are looking for. Feeds are a very powerful part of the internet. So instead of you going to your favorite website everyday for current content, that content comes right to your email client or feed reader. Very handy stuff and I'm sure others out there would use it too. Is it easy to implement?

Not sure, the issue is that this is a very heavily modified message board, so I would have to probably hand code the changes to at least some of the pages. But right now I dont have a home computer (its cactus), and I am going overseas for a month in three weeks, so its not looking like I will have much time for the next two/three months.
love,
Geoff.
