you'd be better off using JAM for everything... then you won't have to
worry about any of the limitations of HMB at all... 200 areas is a
limitation of HMB... then there's also that all areas share the same 16Meg
limitation and that only a certain number of posts can even exist in HMB...
in its day, HMB was the shizz but that has long since passed...

they all are quite busy with activity... they wouldn't even be available
any more if i weren't specifically keeping them listed and at least posting
the rules monthly...
