I agree with Russ. I do too. I've done it in long threads when the
header got too long (before it could wrap safely), by deleting a few
out of the middle. I've also done it "illegally" (making a single
article a followup to two different branches of a thread; obviously,
newsreaders wouldn't show it that way, but it was the closest to what
I, as poster, intended for the semantics).
