   The problem with this approach is that nobody (and I'm often guilty 
of this as well) can seem to figure out how to change the fucking 
subject line of a message.
So a thread of fifty messages with a subject something to do with Chris 
Byrne's life story or latest family health tragedy might actually have 
some interesting, group-relevant material in it but it'd get delete out 
of hand.
