If you go back through the archives you run into this issue about every
several years. It is sort of a component of the nature of this list, to
have multi-branch threads and can get confusing.

Another is identifying your location. (Alaska, Florida. or China?)

I tend to side with Charlie as it is easy to follow a branch even if it is
not the same subject as the title. Sometime when you do start a new title,
you get posts on the old thread and posts across threads and tiles which
are even more difficult to follow. That is easy to see if you go away for a
week or so and try to follow the discussion on more than one title.

So, if it really does not relate, start a new title, but start the thread
with what got you there by quoting from the previous thread so we know what
drives the new thread.

Nature and the BeeL move in cycles.
