As we're a technically savvy bunch, can I ask that when posting to the list
with a new message not to reply to another and then change the subject?
This breaks threading and will cause issues when looking at the archives.
I'm simply asking this as a user of the list who uses a threading MUA.
Thanks & 73's

I'm so happy I'm not the only one suffering from zombie threads that
abruptly change the subject and topic.
Thread hijacking is like transmitting on a frequency that's already
being used by another OM, it's impolite, rude and shows a lack of
respect towards other OMs.
But unlike transmitting on the band there is an easy way to avoid all
that, you just create a new thread by using the "New Message" button in
your email client. It's like a endless band, in case no currently active
thread corresponds to a topic you want to discuss, you just create a new
one by clicking the "New Message" button.
Thank you so much for your cooperation.

Actually it is cumbersome as one has to search and copy right email
address where to send message. Hitting Reply is much easier.
However, there is away. In Firefox, user may right click To field of a
message header (which contains sending address of a mail list)and there
wil be option "Compopse message To...". That will create new thread and
use email address from the to field. I guess other email clients have
similar options.
