Excuse me? First time I went to ihub I thought I was in the SI message board section.

Excuse me? Ignorance on your part doesn't necessarily mean malevolence on mine.

It functions the same way as SI when it comes to numbering posts all together instead of by board.

Correct. Because from a data processing viewpoint, it's the right way to do it. SI didn't invent that. Actually, if you knew anything, you'd know that SI didn't originally do it that way, either. In fact, I think it was David Lawrence who originally suggested that it be done that way.

When you learn a thing or two about data processing, then I'll take your criticisms along those lines more seriously. Apparently the tire analogy was completely lost on you, although it was darned accurate. Actually, I'm sure you've got enough gray matter to have figured that out, but, since it runs counter to your hypotheses, you choose to ignore it.

Did you notice that the other site has a line of menu options going across the top of the screen? Wow! Must've copied that from SI, too. Or is it possible that the menu items are in a single row at the top of the screen because that's a commonly accepted standard for menus? Oops. I just noticed my browser itself has the same thing. I must've copied from MSFT.
