Hi Curtis,

That's one good point. Here (IMHO) is another.

Scenario:  You're reading a thread and have something to say. The last
new message in the thread is the last in the window. You want to reply
directly  into  the  thread but aren't sure to whom you want to reply.
You  want  to  read what everyone has already said before you jump in.
You  read  the last message and *poof* the window closes. Snarling you
open the main desktop and search for that darned thread and eventually
get  back  to  where you were and maybe remember exactly what you were
going to say and to whom you wanted to say it ...

No,  I'm glad TB does it the way it does it. Sure it's different. Vive
la difference IMHO ;-).
