So several users have said it is confusing to remember that “New Post” actually means Reply.  Where would I change this label?  So many files…so little time to search through them 🙂

This is the beauty of themes… just change your template!

Find your SP theme template folder – the template in question is spTopicView and the template tag you are looking for is called sp_PostNewButton(). Note in the default theme this is called twice. You will see what to change.

Remember that while in Alpha/Beta theme files will change so you may have to re-make any changes – or – the best way but again worth waiting for release – copy the theme so you can make changes we will not overwrite.
