Not to cause trouble or anything, but why is it important to keep 
message volume down?  If someone submits a thoughtful reply instead 
of a one-liner, and uses an appropriate header, why should they have 
to cram a bunch of unrelated topics into one giant post?  Also, if 
someone is responding to post No. 25,000, 25,005 and 25,008, and they 
put all of their thoughts into No. 25,000, then someone who tries to 
read the entire discussion on the other two threads will miss their 
input.  

Wouldn't it be better if people pretty much stuck to the subject of 
the post they are replying to unless the discussion has taken a 
natural detour, in which case they could just update the subject line 
and say whatever they want?

Anyway, I'm new here and I know the list has been going on for a 
while, but I thought I might as well ask the question rather than 
just continue to wonder about it.

Thanks for indulging me.
