Thanks, I don't know if that is a good thing or not. How do they measure hot topics? By the number of post? Or is by the number of visitors? DO they take in to consideration the number of lurkers. ( I would love to see the number of lurkers out there.) Is by hits? that is by vote. Is it % of new post to existing post or just new post? Is it based against the number of over all post, thread by thread? I have been trying to understand it, so I can use it in my basket of indicators. Such as buffalo thread returns to the top ten of si hot topic area after sitting for month, during market corrections or tops. LOL Greg
