WOW you are correct that's a bit IDIOTIC !!!
OK I agree AGORACOM techies are a bit behind the curve,
Notice that the path is /patriot/messages/######
That would lead a reaonable person to believe that the patriot messgaes are in their own messages folder in teh patriot directory
Also, AGORACOM teh message shodl be a frame so that only the message would need to be rewritted
and not the whole page
