Actually the tap tap see discussion was about adding a feature to help people 
center the objectin the center of the screen which would possibly result in 
better results.  And, this is only a mailing list.  Try a vacation for your 
nerves! <grin>  Just teasing!

  Subject: Hijacking threads again from a group member's perspective


  In the last few days, things have truly gotten out of control.

  Messages with subject lines about the Sendero Seeing Eye app end up talking 
about completely different topics; messages with subject lines about tap tap 
see feedback are actually about the regular camera app and on and on it goes.

   

  This is truly annoying on a list as busy as this one, 

   

  It does not take a rocket scientist to start a new message with an 
appropriate subject line.

   

  If you do not understand what it means to "hijack a thread" it means replying 
to a message and going off on a different subject than that of the message to 
which you are replying.

   

  Even choosing to reply to a message, then changing the subject line does not 
help because those of us who have our messages organized by thread, still get 
that message sorted into the group that match the original subject line.

   

  So, if you what to talk about a topic that is different than the original 
thread, take the extra few seconds and hit compose instead of reply.

   

  Be thankful I am not a moderator because I would simply cancel people's 
access to the list after a couple warnings.  Raul and Cara have given many, 
many warnings about this issue, one as recent as last week.

   

  If it wasn't for the people who continue to give good, helpful information on 
this list I would unsubscribe to keep from having to spend most of my time 
hitting the delete key, which is what I do now.

   

  Richard
