Ok, this is just a short rant and a sorta-like poll. The auto refresh drives me nuts. I'd spend more time at TPM without it.

Who's with me? Anybody else hate the auto-refresh, or am I just a cranky old lady? (OK, not that old, but I can see old from here.)

At the very least, TPM should lengthen the interval. What's going to change in five seconds??

(Addendum. Yes, I'm aware that it's more like 20 seconds, it just feels like five to me. Also, I know that the main cafe page doesn't auto-refresh, but all the "news" pages do, which is where I do most of my reading these days. Just in case you were going to snark about that.)
