Hi Erin,

I was wondering if we can put in a functionality where I can post someone's name in a post to get their attention, and it will notify them somehow? For example, sometimes I read someone's question and I know a particular TMian would probably know the answer so I ask the person who posts to ask those people. They then have the option of sending a PM (but then other ppl can't benefit) or they have to wait until the person (with the answer) sees the thread and post on their own. I've done that a few times with Dingus and I think Econ or Klimano, and they usually catch the thread, but there seems to be a more effective solution. Any thoughts?
