Here is a sample of a forum designed to look like Tufte's
http://metrics.med.yale.edu/forum/forum-view?forum%5fid=801
This site is currently prelaunch in testing and you can post now. If you come back a month or a year from now this url may not work and/or it may be an active forum so then please don't post test messages.
For those of you curious about the rest of the site we'll do a case study after launch, please don't try to dig
Thanks
