Lightbulb Page Layout Question/Suggestion

Just something I've noticed recently...

Is there a way to place the directory tree beneath the last post on each page, as well as at the top? I find myself getting to the bottom of pages, then having to scroll up to be able to jump back to another part of the website. Sorry if I'm being just lazy! I thought it might help with the ease of surfing the site a little bit. Thanks!

Example below.... this would be available underneath the final post on each page:

I don't know if you've seen it, but there is a "Forum Jump" Drop Down/Up window at the bottom of the page if you scroll all the way down. Takes a couple more clicks but performs the same function as you're suggesting.

There's also a "Top" link at the bottom that, of course, will take you all the way back up to the top without having to scroll up.

Thanks - I have used the drop-down list in the past. Please don't get me wrong - the layout of this site is spectacular. I've been thinking about posting the request I made for about a month - and just tonight thought it couldn't hurt....

The biggest thing on my mind for the moment is actually what restaurant we're going to order some rockin' homestyle tofu from tomorrow!

Do what I do. Map the "back" button on the browser to a button your mouse. Makes it easy.

Wow. Never thought about that! Thanks! Sometimes I link right in from the newest posts on the front page, though. So going back one directory tree step is usually what I'm looking for.
