> How can I view the whole thread?
You can display every message in a thread at:
http://www.dr-bob.org/cgi-bin/pb/extras.pl
Also, the whole thread is listed (every post is linked to) in the first post (which is itself listed in every post).

In theory, the subject line tells you something about the subject, but people don't always revise them accordingly.
> its hard to read everything and understand what the topic is
You can say that again! :-)
