@HodofHod: I prefer the old title, as now it is too similar to the body.– Double AA ♦May 2, 2012 at 18:43

@DoubleAA I agree, but then, there isn't much to the body in the first place. The general idea is that you should be able to guess the general topic of a question from its title, before clicking on it. I couldn't, so I edited. Feel free to rework the body to be more elaborate or whatnot.– HodofHodMay 2, 2012 at 18:46
