      agreed. i also do many more daily actions than it lets me count. and when i want to switch my daily actions, it says it will delete previous points i earned for them. doesn't seem fair that things i've already done get discounted, because i want to choose a different action to work towards. maybe i'm just doing it wrong. john dutt or mary h, help!?
