At the point at which any particular person is no longer interested in 
reading a thread, they should stop reading it.  Then the thread can die a 
natural death, and no one needs to get upset at a few messages a day appearing in 
their mailbox.  As you can see the thread died all by itself.  On 
soc.genealogy.medieval, some of the vicious cat-calling threads go on and on for a few 
hundred postings, and get quite nasty.  But they all die eventually.  And 
these are between scholars (self-proclaimed at times).
