What is indeed what?

Don't assume that your readers can easily see the article to which
you're replying. Provide some context.

If you want to post a followup via groups.google.com, don't use
the broken "Reply" link at the bottom of the article. Click on
"show options" at the top of the article, then click on the
"Reply" at the bottom of the article headers.

We must do something.  This is something.  Therefore, we must do this.
