[or-roots] confused subject lines

[Leslie Chapman]

I am sure that was her intent; the problem with this one lies in the fact
that as near as I could follow it the "man with Amnesia" discussion invovled
a number of family names and some of what was posted was relevant to those
same family names, but not in fact directly related to the "man"

I have been too lazy to try and unravel it all but when the discussion
wandered into London Springs it did at least get my attention as that is
just over the hill from where I grew up and I have lately had extensive
conversations with some of the folks from there about their family heritage.
As I mentioned to some of them my family and thiers have been neighbors for
so long they feel like family even though they aren't kin.

Certainly we all need to remember that others appreciate it if we take an
extra minute to clean up our post and be certain of such details before
hitting the send button. We need to be grateful that Layne doesn't make us
adhere to a rigid posting policy as do some lists and try not to abuse that
fact.

Nancy, I believe that Nancy is saying to change the subject line when the
e-mail does not pertain to the "man with amnesia".  There have been some
under the "man with amnesia" which did not pertain.  I don't believe for a
minute that she was suggesting we stop talking about the subject if you have
more to add.
