	There is an easy way of doing this same thing in most modern mail
clients.  If you set them to read by thread you get a similar topicality
dispersion but also have the ability to check out some other topic
without having to leave and do to what amounts to a separate list.

	Mind you, I am not making light of the forum.  It is a great way of
handling topical differences.  It just doesn't have the convenience of a
mailing list for those who prefer all the info in one place.  For some
of us it takes far to much time and effort to deal with an forum
interface than a list.  For others of us, the opposite is true.  Thus
the availability of both is a good thing for Sumo fans around the world.
