Oops.  My bad.  I apologize for the quick reply.  On a different mailinglist, that I am 
much more active on, "hijacking" a thread means moving to a different subject 
without changing the subject line -- often two or three subjects will be discussed in the 
same thread without anybody changing the subject line.  On that mailinglist, it is OK to 
start a new subject by simply changing subjects.

Must be different mailinglist software.  I apologize for my hasty response, and 
I will not start new threads this way in the future.

Wtf indeed.

BTW, the next time you post to this list please do not "Hijack Threads".

If you don't know what that means....  You took a message written by Joe Zeff with the 
subject of "Re: LibreOffice version 4", hit reply, deleted the Subject and 
Message body and then entered your own Subject and Body and sent it to the list.

For folks like myself who use Threads to keep emails with the same topic 
grouped you ruined it.
