[HPforGrownups] Why Combine Posts?

I feel it is more of a preference really.  I can't stand digests and feel
that such combined posts are more confusing than downloading 3 separate
e-mail messages.  And I find it easier to follow along on threads.  For
instance, this subject of a post was extremely long and bordered on the
ridiculous:  "Veritaserum/Memory Charm - Mindy/Cindy - Riddle/Voldemort -
Good/Evil - Bagman - Women's Institute - Cho - Snape lovers - Muggle gov't"
I might have wanted to read some of it but definitely did not want to slog
my way through all of it to find the parts I wanted to read.  So I just
delete all the multi-responses/mini-digest e-mail messages.  I really don't
miss all that much. By the time someone combines them that way, I have
usually exhausted my interest in those topics anyway.

Maybe another poll to find the current feeling on how to do this would be a
good idea?

Just my 2 cents.
