No, what he says to do buries the new topic in the thread. You want the new topic to appear if on the web site you select "Group by Topic" and it won't if you just replace the subject. If you're going to start a new topic and want to quote something from another topic then just select the text, select Copy from your browser or Ctrl-C and then Paste from the browser or Ctrl-V into your new message. I'm sure you know this but this is for those who don't.
