there is no such thing as thread hijacking. There is thread recycling where an new subject line is put in an existing thread by a person too lazy to start a fresh thread - there is also a variety of thread recycling where the person starts a new subject in an existing thread and is too laxy to even put the new subject line. And there is thread forking where a new subject takes off from and existing thread and becomes a subthread (like I am doing in this post). -- regards Kenneth Gonsalves Associate, NRC-FOSS [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://nrcfosshelpline.in/code/ _______________________________________________ ilugd mailinglist -- ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org http://frodo.hserus.net/mailman/listinfo/ilugd Archives at: http://news.gmane.org/gmane.user-groups.linux.delhi http://www.mail-archive.com/ilugd@lists.linux-delhi.org/
