To wish that people would read?

OK, I know I'm old and crotchety, but couldn't people at least scan previous responses to a thread? It's really frustrating when Op has clarified something and they carry on regardless, or when there has been a new development and it's ignored, or someone has given information and another poster comes along and repeats it...
That's it really.

I used to be guilty of this when the thread was really long and it's difficult to find extra posts by the OP but then I discovered the highlight function and life's a doddle! . Seriously you do have a good point, but highlighting the OP's posts does make it a lot easier to keep up.
