I am so relieved that things are going a bit better so you can be around here and enjoy the grand be-be there!!

If you will be modifying the guidelines, you could go into a little more explanation or give examples on how to search to see if a thread already exists.

Also, there is some kind of instruction on sending a PM to a mod and asking her to check for an existing thread. It wasn't very clear to me if the person was supposed to wait for a reply from the mod, or go ahead and start the new thread.

Third, a little more clarification on reporting a thread. For example, we are supposed to report our swap thread when it is time to close it because the information is no longer needed. In a similar vein: a very frequent newly started thread is "hi I'm totally new and need recommendations". After a point, the person often then decides to buy 6 imps. Should those types of threads be reported for closure, since they resulted in an action and may not be so useful after the person places an order?

Fourth, since the search engine doesn't cope with 3-character input, maybe a link to the explanation of why the search engine doesn't work in this case and where to go to find the "Eos" review or whatever.

I don't know specifically about Nevada licensing but...Unless you are planning on practicing in Nevada or just want to take the PE for fun, a PE that required fewer years design experience would not be reciprocal with other states. Most states are trying to base reciprocity on NSPE guidelines, which includes the dreaded four years. Some states want to run reciprocity through NSPE altogether so require 20 pages of state related paperwork plus the 20 pages of NSPE. (20 is not an exaggeration).
