I'm totally confused. I did a thorough search of each of the 4 pages with active threads before posting my thread including find in page search and TMC's thread was nowhere to be seen. How can a thread be posted at 7:13pm a few hours ahead of me and not be found with the search feature?

Dunno, but I have had issues similar to that with the search feature not finding threads.
