"Dialup users could set your prefs to 20 or so to display."
BRAVO!
People need to quit whining about long threads; learn how to configure your user preferences, now is a good time to start.
Starting a new thread over and over again accomplishes little except to fragment the discussion, a new thread will hit 100+ posts in just a few minutes, anyways.
Thanks. much glad for a more knowlegeable head to chime in on a fitting need!
