Dear Gene,
Private email suggests that others are puzzled, too.
In the new Google Groups (Beta) . . .
http://groups-beta.google.com/group/rec.bicycles.tech?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8
Near the top of the opening display, click on "view with
message text" and you get twenty threads, each displayed on
a single line (there are options for more threads per page).
Click on a thread and the default view has no left-hand tree
showing all the posts in the thread, which is what I think
you're looking for.
Within the thread, go to the top of the page and click on
the option to "view as tree"--this produces the familiar
index tree of all posts in the current thread in a left-hand
frame.
You can turn the tree off again by clicking on "no frame" in
the frame.
That's about as close as you'll get to the old version here:
