Yes to the old SI format, they can continue with the new one too. You have my full support..
I hope all the best for SI.. Please don't change our environment we are use to it, sometime birds never return to a new landscape. Please compare beta with other threads like Motley fools and Clear Station, you have a good niche don't destroy it.. new Coke was never able to take over from Classic.. Learn from exerience. Ike

The new version of SI is not all that great, will anyone notice that writng on SI is fun, they have made it like Motley's and Clear Station format, the size of the font and the lay out . Motley and Clear station threads have not been able to take off.
I wish best of luck for SI, but if they have an 'ounce of respect' for the posters who keep this SI vibrant and one of the finest place amongst its peers, they should think twice before changing the fonts and the format. The beta version dilutes corporate identity of SI, like the new Coke, it never really took off. You have earned our loyalty to SI hard way don't just loose it and throw it away. Technology offers great solutions but habits rarely die..
Love and regards to whoever runs this show..
I will encourage everyone who vists here to write to SI, we will get what they have destined for us, but anyway let them know 'our present system is just great'.
New 'bottle' of SI makes us feel that we have a new neighbourhood, new surroundings that is not very encouraging.
