I can relate to your frustation because it happened to me too.  May I
suggest that you write again about Blaze problem?
 
I also suggest that suscribers shorten and make as legible as possible
their posts.  I might not be the only one that skip posts with paragraphs
that are over a screen long.  Suscribers might also wish to try to
implement a letter coding system that would identify a post, for example
Q for question, A for answer, C or re for a comment etc...
 
However, I am amazed that long time & knowledgeable suscribers to the FML
do not seem to suffer from "answerer fatigue" and reply time and again to
the same questions.  I am even more grateful that busy people (i.e. ferret
shelter operators, vets, breeders, Bob C. etc...) take time to write
regularly on the FML.  Many thanks to BIG that always deliver daily a
wonderful moderated list AND with posts grouped by topic!
