When you are here for a while, its easy to recognize duplicate threads and ignore them. Otherwise just politely inform the new poster that older threads can be found using the search tool or the wiki and move on, encourage them to post new info only and use descriptive titles. I don't think it helps our cause to alienate new subscribers, they could be a great source of new leads.
