Not my fault. It was broken when I got here, honest! ;-)
Actually, I think there were a couple of really awful subject lines
last week. It would really help if posters updated the subject
occasionally and prefixed the old one with "was". This may help for
other things too. For the "bits" list, I'd really prefer not to get
into editing, as that way lies a lot of work and the tabloids.
When a particular thread goes bananas, I do stop reading things with
its subject if I'm busy. Updating the subject will get my attention
again if it's something interesting. I don't think that's unusual.
