Now I think I understand what happened in the 'moisture sensor'
thread - you
are replying to the original poster, but tacking it onto the last
post in
the thread, thereby replying in this instance, not to Susie as you
intended
to, but compo.

You are mistaken, Phil. The fact that David's post appears on your
screen directly beneath Compo's does not mean that he was replying
to
Compo (usenet threads don't work like that) nor does it mean he
"tacked
it on the end of the thread". David can't influence the order in
which
posts appear on your screen.

On the other hand, if David did not make a habit of removing relevant
headers, snipping without saying so and requoting context without
attribution marks, his posts would have been easier to read. Having
said that, I would emphasise that his posts are always very much worth
reading.

You probably have your newsreader set to thread posts in
chronological order.
