Maybe you or somebody else can explain to me and other laymen why it is that sometimes, purple will seem to sit on big chunks of emails for a while -- then drop them in my inbox, but sliced and diced, so that responses to posts arrive before the originals did?

This doesn't happen to me often, but it just did again during about an hour's worth of heated UC-list exchanges posted around 10-11 pm this evening. The result, especially given the topic and the posters, was a little like reading a William Burroughs novel: exciting but disorienting at the same time. Like the time my wife thre up in the Teacup Twirl ride at the amusement park.

I don't expect to remember the explanation, but I'd still love to read a techie's explanation of how this happens.
