Bug in HW Section Thread Previews?

In summary, when creating a new thread in the HW section, three bold sentences appear: "problem statement," "relevant equations," and "your solution." These sentences accumulate each time the thread is previewed before submission, resulting in multiple sets of the same three statements. This issue has been known for some time, and it is unclear if anything can be done about it. However, it may be worth bringing up again with the new software upgrade.

In case this hasn't been reported, when a creating a new thread in HW section three bold sentences show up like "problem statement," "relevant equations" and "your solution" you know what I mean. But every time you preview the thread before submission the same three sentences keep accumulating in your existing thread. If you preview five times, then you will get five sets of those three statements.

This has been known for some time. I don't know if Greg can do anything about it. It never hurts to bring these things back up once in a while though. Perhaps there is something he can do with the new software (I think it was talked about mainly before the upgrade).
