[thelist] vertical scrollbars

[Bob Meetin]

Yes the wisdom is the guts of the matter.  Not being a Mac user, I would not know this about the invisibility.  That's a good enough argument to close the deal. The template I'm using is already based upon responsive design, we're reasonably good there and we're not over-pushing the pillbox.

We're good.
