Is it possible to highlight the date of the OP in old threads? There is currently a thread which has been bumped by someone and so has come back into circulation. A couple of people have read the OP and commented on the query - not realising that it is three years old and the poster has long ago left MN!
If there was some highlight on the date of the OP, say if it was more than a year old, then it would help avoid wasting time trawling through old info and you could jump to the bump instead.
Jump to the bump!?
Sounds like a groovy new dance craze.
