Well, since you asked, not quite. You "hijacked" a thread by
replying to a posting and changing the subject. The problem
with that is that your post shows up as part of the thread to
which you replied. If somebody has decided they're not
interested in that thread and killed it, then they won't see
your posting even though it has nothing to do with the killed
thread to which you posted it.
IOW, changing the subject doesn't start a new thread. To start
a new thread, send a "fresh" e-mail to the list (rather than
replying to a message in an existing thread).
