Oh you're right. I got it now. But you didn't.
Actually I didn't change the topic. I posted it in the newsgroup where
the offenders were, so they might see it. I'm not trying to start a
fight, just improve things a little.


Good evening, Rick.

Well, I (and presumably others) would have been a lot happier if you
hadn't done it by "hijacking" the "we're on a ledge" thread.

When you do a followup (reply) to a topic and just change the topic, it
messes up threaded newsreaders big time, so that now every time a new
article comes in on the "Quoted text" thread, I get a notification that
something came in on my "we're built on a ledge" thread when it's really a
completely different topic entirely.

In the future please, PLEASE start a new thread rather than replying to an
old one if you're going to change the topic.

Thanks...
