Why not just kick the first one to bring it to the top?

2. I guess I figured this was a disaster worth giving a White House email for.


Don't know if it will help but it certainly was the least I could do - I feel like BP is getting no oversight at this point - hope to hell I'm wrong.

8. Repetitve messages are just annoying, not effective, and they add to the static
Bringing ONE thread back to the top for more visibility is more effective.

When I see the same person re-porting the same thread over and over, I tend to just block ALL those messages, not pay more attention. If I see a thread with a lot of view, comments and recommendations, I am more likely to read and act on it.
