    How old are you? Revisited

    Torpedo's right about the overlap, but I guess if you were born in Jan-June you can go with the earlier block, July-December go with the later block. That's real easy and logically distributes the dates into appropriate blocks. Let's see if we can get this up to 200!:D

    Digitrax SE8C

    Briefly looking through the manual, it shows the turnouts and local buttons connected to the edge connector, and the signal cables connected through on-board connectors; so it appears they are separate functions and should be available simultaneously. But I can't say for sure. Slow-motion...

    RTS 7.0 Is it really accurate ?!

    I know what you're saying, JD, but in actuality that gap is absorbed by tolerance and "wiggle room" when you actually lay track. You need to allow a few gaps for expansion anyhow!

    Hey, Don, there is a feature which allows you to view all new posts from the last 24 hours. It only shows up AFAIK if there are no new posts when you return. The question is, is it possible to have this feature always available? That way if the 30 minutes have elapsed you still have a way to...

    Disabling Thread Subsciption

    I like getting 'em also. And I use the heck out of "New Posts". There is one problem, however. If I leave for a period of time (I don't know how long), my "Time last visited" gets reset, and any new posts I did not look at disappear. Now this is the question: if the time is reset, and...
