Ken.
P.S,. Some of us always assume they post great stuff, so they don't need it.

I was asking more of a nuts and bolts question: Specifically what happens when you press the button. I see there is a popup that appears asking "Send your thanks to...". Given the window that appears and the text it looks like it sends a PM to the poster with "Thanks". Will have to experiment...hmm can I "thank" my own posts.
Edit: Interesting: Pressing "Thanks" on your own post shows a popup saying "This post has been thanked X times". Cool.
