   echo   
   13 Sep 12 10:27:00   
   
   On 09-12-12, BOB KLAHN said to JOHN MASSEY:   
      
      
   BK>How did this wind up in Debate?   
      
      
   I'll take this one, John;   
      
      
   Usually, my OLR will show a few lines of the first post in an `area' coming   
   after the last message in the preceding area.   
      
      
   Which is what happened here.   
      
      
   RC>>> Hello John!   
      
   RC>>> 01 Sep 12 18:38, you wrote to All:   
      
      
   At the end of the last message in the ALL POLITICS area I saw John's   
   `question.   
      
      
   JM>>>> Anyone here?   
      
      
   It was such a short message (two words and a question mark) that it appeared   
   as though it was the last message of the ALL POLITICS echo. I hit the `reply'   
   icon and responded without noticing the `area' I was responding in....   
      
      
   TR>> Where do you get your message packets from?   
      
      
   JM> Ross's Easterstar   
      
      
   ...until John replied and I saw the echo his reply was IN! I then realized I'd   
   posted in `your' echo, without noticing the change of `area' my OLR had made   
   after the last post in ALL POLITICS. As John's post was the first to come up   
   in your echo, when my OLR made the area switch I replied without seeing the   
   echo change.   
      
      
   It was unintentional.
