This is my point:

Assuming a message is dealing with a problem on Netscape and a reply has a a
a solution but then goes on to talk about a similar or different Internet
Explorer problem. Then later someone else replies with a comment on the
Internet Explorer rather than the original Netscape query, then to my mind,
this is starting another thread which I do not happen to be interested in.
My point then is that I would rather know that I am on another thread;  by
all means include something like Re: Internet Explorer (formerly Netscape)
initially to show the connection.

I hope this has cleared my thoughts rather than muddied them!!
