<BIDS> Did you see the clever think the BIDS longs did with their thread? Getting on the SI Hot List is determined by a formula that takes into account increase in posting and increase in subject bookmarking relative to current levels. Since the current BIDS thread was already quite active, any increase in activity would have to be extreme for it to make the Hot List. So, they created and bookmarked a completely new thread and then abandoned the old one so that the relative increase in activity would show up and get them flagged as a hot topic.   :-) Best, Jimmy Liberato
