With egg on his face, Kirk agrees. He too, will not do it again.
 
Much to learn about the complexities of the email list there is.

Please don't do what Kirk says.

Create a NEW EMAIL with the subject you want and send it to
tcb@xxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Replying and changing the subject makes a mess for people who use
"threaded" email programs and don't delete every email as soon as
they've read it.

(threaded email readers keep replies to a message grouped with the
original, messages don't just display in chronological date order as
they arrive. So, now, in my email program I see this:

[tcb] New Subject ---> From Kirk
  -- [tcb] Re: New Subject ---> From Mark
  -- [tcb] Re: New Subject ---> From Brian
  -- [tcb] Cool Shirts @ Kohl's ---> From Edward
  -- [tcb] Re: New Subject ---> From Gerald

If someone replies to your message it will become:

[tcb] New Subject ---> From Kirk
  -- [tcb] Re: New Subject ---> From Mark
  -- [tcb] Re: New Subject ---> From Brian
  -- [tcb] Cool Shirts @ Kohl's ---> From Edward
     -- [tcb] Re: Cool Shirts @ Kohl's ---> From Someone
     -- [tcb] Re: Cool Shirts @ Kohl's ---> From Someone Else
  -- [tcb] Re: New Subject ---> From Gerald

It gets REALLY ugly when people keep doing it and the "levels of
replies" get deeper.

Thanks,

Gerald
