Please answer - How is your world shaken up if a thread is started, using the same topic, more than once? It boggles my mind that this would bother anyone in the slightest way.
Mirrored threads are oft advantageous in that one may catch the latest when the earlier posted thread dies.

My world is not shaken up, I'm just giving my opinion on this one caller just like the rest of you and imo, this a big to do about nothing and doesn't deserve 6 threads on it.

What's the point? If the thread had pertinent information that was valuable to all Freepers then yes, but to have multi-duplicate threads serving no purpose other than to collect a group of fawning and weeping folks affected by some frustrated on edge female caller on a talk show is going way overboard and is overkill. We need solutions and frankly neither Susan's angst or Rush's response to her had any.

Btw duplicate threads are not encouraged on FR, at least the last time I heard and rightfully so. You may like them, but that doesn't mean others do.
