: Why do they call them threads anyway? There should be a more proper
: analogical counterpart, because threads are linear, and the usenet is
: subject to tangents. My suggestion is 'upsidedown trees'. I think it
: is appropriate, because we start on top with the trunk,  and we get
: branches, then the leaves are so distant from the trunk that they bear
: little resemblance. The squirrels and birds are the non-sequitur type
: posts.
