What I think is funny/odd is, if someone starts a new thread about the same topi
c, that's fine.  But some people seem to get annoyed when someone responds to an
other thread about the same topic if it's a somewhat old thread.  I guess we sho
uldn't assume the original poster is still interested (but maybe they are).  But
 if people can start new threads, I don't see why it should be such a big deal t
o respond to other threads regarding the same topic.
