Odd, that thread which was just moved to Detritus ("calculation,density for EX...?") shows as "Replies: -1".

If it doesn't show up for others I can take a pic.

Ha, ha. Yeah - me too. It's just a shame that

"about thioredoxin"
"Mechanism of Permanganate/oxalate reaction"

show as having -1 replies. Before I saw them, I though it maybe somebody having a laugh (which they still may) But it's not quite as amusing as if only the "calculation,density for EX...?" post had it.

Nice spotting 12AX7...

Sometimes the forum loses track of replies and/or edits and I have to hit the "fix post count" or "fix thread totals" button. That's what happened here, and why the count was formerly -1 but is now 0. I do find it grimly amusing that the forum developers couldn't be bothered to find/fix the source of miscounts, but added a button to fix it after the fact.
Code:
/*fixes weird arithmetic bug*/ if (two + two == total && total == 5) total = 4;
