This has long been an annoyance on the Olympus list, but now I am beginning to see it more and more on the Leica list as well (perhaps not surprising, given the overlap between the two lists). I am in the habit of almost automatically deleting any thread with a subject line that does not interest me, and also any thread with more than 20-30 messages, since that usually indicates heavy thread drift or a food fight, neither of which interest me. If someone has posted a masterpiece in the middle of such threads, I simply will not see it. So, please, if you have something NEW to share, create a new thread!
