Like most of the others, I read through the thread if I'm posting more than words of appreciation for a nice quilt. If I want to ask a question (such as the name of the pattern) then I may not read the whole thing, but I do scan through to see if the OP has posted again in that thread, answering any questions. It is annoying to see the same question asked again and again, after it has been answered, but I also understand that not everyone has enough familiarity with the computer to effectively search through the past answers, so I try to cut them a little slack. ;-)
