 * Is it possible to link the author to a category-type sort so that by clicking
   on author one would get a page with all the posts from that author?

 * `index.php?author=1`
 * Brings up all post by the author with the userID of 1. When using custom permalinks,
   this also (usually) works:
 * `/author/Kaf`

 * Here’s thepete asking another absurd question about something he wants to do 
   with WP. I need to have a link that goes to all of a particular author’s posts
   in a particular category.
 * Or is that just impossible to do?
