>> IHAQ was great for that too. Now each little question requires its own thread -

The logic behind it is that each question gets its own thread.
With IHAQ (and Comp Related), people had to remember to click on the topmost post if they had a new question. Some people didn't and it required a cumbersome move technique where the question had to be moved out of the IHAQ thread, and then stitched back into IHAQ using a 6 digit refefence number. On the odd occasion moving a post would result in it being lost in cyberspace.
Also, by not having a dedicated IHAQ thead means that separate volumes no longer have to be created when they reach approx 100 posts (another cumbersome operation).
From experience, we know that people don't like change, but this really is only a minor one.
