Now, this message regarding Rev. Gary Davis, obviously has nothing to do
with the subject line.
I don't mean to be singling out one individual but I thought that this might
be a good example of how a message of interest to someone might be missed
because the subject line refers to an entirely different thread.
Comon guys, take 5 seconds & change the subject line of a message when the
thread changes. If I can do it, you should be able to.
