Old threads popping up

[Venturous Randy]

I have gotten to the point that the first thing I do when pulling up a thread is to look at the original date. There have been several that are one to two years old that it appears the poster that brought it up, ran across it in a search and took off again, without realizing the date.

This is fine as we have a lot of great threads, but if I find an old post pertinant, I will start a new thread and refer back to the old post. I think this keeps down some of the confusion, even though for some, I think confusion is a big part of their life.

Yep, you 're correct. I am actually referring mostly to the original poster's date. Sometimes a tread lies dormant for a year or longer and then it gets new life. This is fine, but sometimes these threads appear to be thought by many to be current and what they are taking issue with is long past.

Just thoughts of a retarded mind in the middle of the night.
