Well, I replied right at the point of my correspondent (Alex23).  If 
googlegroups isn't tracking that fact, it shouldn't put a reply button at every 
single message, but only at the end of the thread.

I see.  Someone should inform google not to put a reply after every post, but 
only at the end of a thread so users don't assume that it's tracking thread 
hierarchies.  So you're point is apropos, if that's the case.

In which case, my reply was to Alex23 who was replying to the OP's first post 
who goes by the name "r".
