Do you intentionally clip the name of the person you're replying to, or is
it my reader that's doing it?

I haven't intentionally cut names, but have perhaps done it without
thought.

Doesn't your reader show the thread in a "tree" format? That usually
makes it easy to follow who is answering whom.

No it doesn't. Don't assume people want to see all the previously read messages
when opening a group.

Sorry, Bob -- I had no idea.

I would find reading Usenet without the "tree" view to be VERY
confusing. I participate in many threads, and sometimes my
participation is spread over many different parts of my day (or week),
and I often must re-read a few posts to get back up to speed on what's
going on in the thread.
