Correction:Re: Keep Subject Headings Consistent In "Threads"

["Ted Moffett" <ted_moffett@hotmail.com>]

Everyone:

The sentence below that reads "I wonder if this is a deliberate decision by 
some who do want people to easily follow ongoing discussions... " should 
read instead "I wonder if this is a deliberate attempt by some who do NOT 
want people to easily follow ongoing discussions... "

Sorry for the missing "NOT."
