"Thanks for clarifying the Subject line. Brickboard is a little more difficult to follow than a standard forum (where everything is just in a line)."

Yes, the advantage of threading -- keeping replies associated with their sub-subject -- can benefit the reader more often than the original poster, who must identify the new sub-topics which grow out of a generic thing like "my car doesn't run right." Brickboard provides the option of FLAT view, but, at least in my browser, the date info gets lost and the order of posting with it. It used to work years ago for me. I have not even tried to look into it.

This forum's custom software was once way ahead of the generics like vbulletin so many have become proficient at reading, reminding me of how we recognized BetaMax as a technically superior scheme despite popular acclaim. Have to admit it runs circles around the mail lists of the 90's. How many of us can still use WordStar? These RWD cars were designed then too.
