Just a thought here - I don't generally suggest earlier threads on a popular topic unless those earlier threads are fairly short. Some new readers of the forum might turn away from a thread that's multiple pages long because it's too much information to process - and it can be quite tough to find a useful places to start reading in the middle of one of these "monster" threads.
A link, in the new thread, back to the old, big one is probably the most useful approach and then people can decide for themselves. Not a perfect solution, but there won't be a perfect solution when we're talking amongst ourselves and also trying to help new folks at the same time.
And now, as they say after interrupting a TV show, we now return you to your regularly scheduled program.
