I like all this except for the part about cookies. I agree with
Ian and Mike about leaving this to the user and bookmarks.
With cookies how would a person that has already been to
the homepage then gone to News ever get back to the
homepage? Wouldn't it keep on redirecting them back to
News?

If we were to do what Mike suggested and just have headlines
and relegate the details of the intro stuff to a separate linked
page it shouldn't be too crowded.
