I'll voice a public support. And yes, I also received notice from Susan
about my Freenet posting.
What had me most confused was that I was contacted personally. I'm sure
everyone else in the thread was /also/ contacted personally, but that meant
that the thread continued on. It would be nice to have a public notice that
the thread has wandered (or started) off-topic, and to continue conversation
elsewhere.
