Numbering of Threads Suggestion

[hex]

Does this forum format allow each separate post to be numbered?
Or perhaps each sepearte thread would be more workable ?

Such a feature could someday (perhaps already) be a Godsend to those trying to recall a post, or in doing research.

Perhaps the number could be prefixed or followed by a two digit year code.

I have already lost trac of a post that I read a few days back while surfing thew forum's many nooks & crannies.

I was too lazy to jot down any info, but a number might have been easier to jot. I do not even remember the subject matter, it was the member that I need.
