    Do you agree?

    No. Was a statement called for to answer your question?

    Were my responses to Hongy questions?

    Do I even know what the "problem" is? Or even whether it is a problem?

    Did you even check the (new) Subject line of this thread?

    Do you even know about the new rule?

    Was there a consent about that rule?

    Was there a (democratic or at least non-discriminating) poll?

    Is it a mandatory rule?

    Makes it sense in the first place?

    What shall we do if the OPs "problem" is not clear, needs clarification?

    Threads from the OP tend to get long "tapeworm threads"; don't you think
    that challenging every question with another question will lead to even
    longer (theoretically infinite) threads?

    Wouldn't with even more than one question in a post the tendency become
    a potentially exponential increase of posts?

    What is the goal?

    Was the other posters single question goal-driven?

    Janis, or is it someone else?
