The moderators have reworked some threads. This is what I referred to earlier, and mentioned that it can be both useful AND confusing. Some of us follow all the divergent paths in a thread and get confused when one of those paths ends up elsewhere.
New lines of thought could be placed in a new thread, but the new thread may have to contain quotes from another thread (to help explain why the question came up). This has been done before. Quoting, or just rephrasing what was read in another thread, is not difficult and it gives the new topic a place of its own (until we go off on the next tangent, that is).
