hey zoner -

I take it the little "post on fire" icon means "hot", not "this thread has degenerated into a flamewar"?

--G.
though that would be kind of cool.

Yes - and the threshhold is settable in the admin area. I think it is at 10 posts now.

Nono, for a flame war you need either 1. a flamethrower <think 1st Wedge War> 2. a mushroom cloud 0r 3. charred remains.

I wonder about the threshold for determining 'hot' threads though, seems like a vocal bunch around here, so you may want to up the limit a bit.
