"Mark unread"?

I've been reading all the old forum posts and have learned a lot.  One thing I obviously haven't learned is to watch where I'm clicking because yesterday I clicked on "Mark All Read".

Damn.

Is there any way to "Mark all unread"?

There's no "undo" for mark all read.

The threads do appear in date order and each thread shows the last date someone posted to it.

About a week ago all the old threads suddenly got marked "new" again.  Maybe a cookie expired?  In any case, I have the same problem as when they were all marked read:  can't really tell which ones I've read and which ones I haven't.  No big deal; I've started keeping track in a notebook.  Thank Ghod for pencils!  Does Bill Gates know about this handy tool?

Every now and then your cookie "rolls over". I usually just hit the Mark All Posts Read button to reset it. I read every day, so it's pretty easy to know which new posts I haven't seen yet.
