db, this is a great website, which you already know from my 'habit' of visiting your 'campsite'. My question is this, when you click on 'start a new topic' to begin a thread, can a default search be started by asking the member or guest to type in their topic of discussion first. That way if it appears in a previous thread, it may 1) answer their question or 2) at least give them a sense of where that discussion has gone in the past so they know whether or not it is really a new topic. Plus 3) it will help keeps posts organized topically. Just wondering. 8) 8)
