Highlight the text, do a CTRL-C to copy, then start a new thread and do a CTRL-V to copy the text into a new thread. Don't worry too much about the wrong thread. Just put error in the title.

You don't have to re-type it. Just cut and paste.

(A little formatting wouldn't hurt the readability either.)

could you please elaborate on the formatting. thanks.

If this is about the "Question for folks in the bike industry" post, it's all one massive block of text and after a few lines your eye just can't follow the lines very well (or at least mine can't).

Adding a few paragraph breaks will improve readability and make it easier for folks to make it to the end. It will also help organize the flow of your thoughts and lead the reader to your intended conclusion.
