1. RE: Order of list in forum

Not sure what you mean...  Starting at the last message and working back 
in time, the time stamps on the web forum for the last 10 messages are 
as follows:

Oct 23, 2003 09:59 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 09:46 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 08:54 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 07:45 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 07:22 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 07:11 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 06:53 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 06:47 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 06:28 PDT  
Oct 23, 2003 06:15 PDT  

When you sort by date, it takes time received into account.  Newest 
messages are on the bottom.  It's not terribly bad when you get used to 
it.

You are right.  Somehow I got the idea that the messages were not in 
sorted order.  I still think it would be better if they went from newest 
to oldest, but hey, I'm just a new guy and I don't want to make waves.
