Welcome! you will love this site. I have learned so much. Something I learned when I first joined...if you go to the bottom of the main menu to archive and click on that, you will see all new threads listed according to chronological order of when the thread was started (newest at the top). After you click on a thread, it changes color so you know which ones you have read. If you are interested in following a thread, you can "subscribe" to it under quick links at the top. Then you will be able to follow it to see if there are any new comments. If you go in by the main menu at the top, any time someone makes a comment, even months later, it will be posted there. Hope this is helpful.
