Hi Michael.

That's fine, but the Usenet (NNTP) protocol keeps track of the
tree structure of posts and responses. Most News client software
shows that structure, and both Daniel and I can see your original
post as the tail end of a thread of thirty or so postings.

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean it's not there :)
