Sounds simple doesn't it? All you do is multiquote the message above, replying only to the message directly above you, attempting to make a cohesive conversation that continues through an infinite amount of multiquotes.

That's the middle icon on the quick reply: http://ubuntuforums.org/images/buttons/multiquote_off.gif

Let us begin:


What exactly did Douglas Adams mean when he said the answer was 42? What exactly is the question to the answer to life, the universe, and everything?

Well, you should have. You could have read the book, you know.

Doesn't work for me, neither. Never mind, you can always try quote-within-a-quote-within-a-quote.... I think 26 is about the limit.

[Edit]
Oh, wait a minute it does work if you click on more than one multi-quote button.
