I believe the term is "thread creep"? Usenet threads have a tendency
to wander afield from the original post, but I do not see my posting
as being very far afield.

The term is, "channging the subject so you can be right.

Your earlier post "Those heat seakers don't chase high bypass engines
very well." would seem to indicate you wished to depart from the
original thread by introducing the shooting of "heat seakers" at HBPR
engines (thus broadening the field from Igla since Igla has never
fired on a commercial HBPR engine).

On airliners, consistent with the title of the thread. Of course, token
sock, you could have added in your branch to the thread without insisting I
am wrong, but you chose to be a flamer.

Possibly your only error here is inferring that Tarver wished to do
anything but
confuse the issue in a discussion which has gone way over his head.

No Weiss, it is a reading and comprehension problem you and the token sock
share. As well as a penchant for changing the subject, so you can be right,
in your own little fantasy world.
