Hey,
  Responding to digests breaks threading, so you need to add the
subject and some context for your response to make sense and for it to
be noticed by those following the thread you are trying to participate
in.

Hope this helps,
cheers,
Owen.

Thanks for the admonition!

The original message (Vol 51, Issue 9, "No title") complained of a black screen instead of the desktop appearing on startup with v8.10.

Correction - above should read _Vol 51 Issue 9
