    'doddle' is in my dictionary,
    and no 'F' in RTM because it's not polite. :-)

    I was just musing about whether there was an occasion in using D3E where a
    message in one thread might speak to the same subject matter as another in a
    different thread and you might want to merge the threads, possibly even
    under a new heading whilst retaining the thread linkage that says, "they
    came out of here and here".

    One of the things I'm hoping is that my GUI ideas will appeal to Rod Welch,
    who I suspect (correct me if I'm wrong, Rod) actually has a pile of
    knowledge about all of these things. I would love to hear Rod's views on
    these issues wrt to his SDS and POIMS works.

    Cheers,
    Peter
