I know this was a bit off-topic, but I want to encourage everyone to try to keep up this new habit of keeping the subject line clean and clear-cut. Thanks.

This is an interesting discussion.

It's the kind of expression, like the Hebrew "mazel tov," that gives a human touch to religion. -------------------------------------------------------------------------- From: jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:jfw-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Douglas Richard Dexheimer Sent: Thursday, April 21, 2011 9:40 PM To: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: keeping subject line up to date - Mea Culpa What does Mea Culpa mean?

One of my pet peeves, and yet one of my greatest failings. It's just that jumping to the subject line to edit/replace it takes more keystrokes than I usually want to perform.

Instead of using the same subject line for EVERY message in a long thread, PLEASE read each message you compose, and if the topic begins to drift or change, select a new subject line to reflect more clearly the content of your current message. For example, if you listers put together a thread called "Jaws and Firefox", and the topic turns towards something about online education, then read carefully each message you compose and change the subject line accordingly; give the line a name more adequately reflecting the message's content. This will make it more easy to find a particular message or store it in a pertinent folder or mailbox and find it from there. Thanks for your respectful cooperation.
