Threaded comment system nested set - multiple roots?

I think you'd usually have a separate foreign key for ‘owner topic’ in the comments table, rather than hide that information in the nested-set structure. IMO the left/right pair should only dictate nesting/ordering inside the owner context Then it doesn't matter if you have a single root or multiple-root nested set structure. (FWIW, I use multiple-root.) You can certainly grab all the comments for one topic in a single query either way.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
