in reply to And now a little redundancy...

(Let me see if I can get this in before someone beats me to it.)

I open reply-to in a second window and try to remember to refresh the main thread just before hitting submit.  It's saved me (and even others) embarassment more than once.  Though, I admit, it's hard to throw away your own typing after you get it looking so good in the preview.

    I agree. The same-answer dilemma acts as a sort of crucible. You can't say the same thing as the other guy, so off you go to the docs or to Google to find and reveal some hitherto unknown gem. It forces the answer to a finer point (in the best of circumstances... in the worst, a flame war breaks out, competition having run amok....).

    BTW, to petral's practice of spawning a new browser window, I notice there's sparse use of new windows in links throughout this site. I wonder if in the SoPW it might be useful to use them a bit?
