But the flat mode doesn't indicate what post a subsequent post is responding to.

Sure it does. I am in flat mode and your post shows in the subject line header re: Ray Zee.

What if there are several responses by or to the same author e.g., Mason when he posts a "Hand to Talk About". Let's say skp or Andy Fox replies in several spots and Mason eventually gets back in several spots. In flat mode you can't easily tell who responds to who unless they do it only once.

Neat would be a flat mode that maintains the thread logic with a slight level of indenture (perhaps some sort of graphic pointing to widely spaced posts within threads at nearby indenuture levels).
