If you look anywhere in the thread (other than the beginning) and scroll up, you will see all the previous postings, and the URL in the Location bar will change from -bike-12 to -bike-11 to -bike-10, etc. You will see them all because it is one "Web page." If you view the HTML source, you will see that the entire thread is one HTML document (or Web page), with internal markers designating groups of postings as "pages" for indexing purposes. What is indexed as "page 12" is not a separate Web page from "page 11" or anything back to "page 1." Calling something a "web page" does not refer to a single HTML document being indexed as "pages." So yes, for purposes of this forum, we are on "page 12" of the discussion, but that has nothing to do with being "familiar with the concept of web page." That is not "the concept of web page."
Yeah, no, it's a series of HTML pages, each with its own distinct URL (to the left of the .HTML) linked by the infinite scroll feature.
The main question, though, is how one steers out of infinite scroll, which will definitely land you on your butt.
I can argue semantics of "when is a page not a page" with you all day, but watching you defend your misconceived snark has gotten dull.
