Since the example shows what to do when the link is about to become
inactive, *I* would say that it wouldnt log out a bunch of users talking,
if they're on two (or morw) separate, connected nodes.
In other words, if your system is linked up, and the conversation is over,
after the set time, the link shuts off.
If I'm not mistaken, the variable "permalink" (exact verbiage escapes me)
supercedes the linkactivity staza.
