Some topics tend to get heated and go off track in unwholesome ways quite quickly. The "hot topics" sub-forum is a place where such topics may be moved so that each post must be manually approved by moderator before it will become visible to members.

The spelling.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dharma_%28Buddhism%29Dhamma (Pali: धम्म) or Dharma (Sanskrit: धर्म) in Buddhism...
Since Theravada is based on Pali texts, most here use the spelling "Dhamma". However, in common English, the spelling "Dharma" is more standard.
