[QUOTE="Bob Blaylock, post: 426157, member: 16749"] [b]Re: New Member ..Lens Question[/b] A joke is ruined if you have to explain it, but in this case, it was ruined when the moderators merged two duplicate threads, so I might as well explain the joke. The OP started two different threads, in two different subforms, with the same text. I posted a reply in each thread, linking to the corresponding reply in the other thread. When the OP wrote [i]“I can't get link to work Bob..”[/i], the two threads were still separate, and he didn't realize that every time he clicked on the link in my reply, it was taking him to the corresponding reply in the other thread. Now, the threads are merged into one, but both my replies are still there, as [URL="http://nikonites.com/telephoto/29252-hi-new-member-lens-question-post425895.html#post425895"]#11[/URL] and [URL="http://nikonites.com/telephoto/29252-hi-new-member-lens-question-post425897.html#post425897"]#13[/URL]. Click on the link in #11, and it will take you to #13. Click on the link in #13, and it will take you to #11. It was funnier when they were in separate threads. [/QUOTE]
