Topics get blended when people start a new topic by replying to an older 
posting rather than starting fresh with a new email.  This happens even 
if you delete everything in the old message before replying, because the 
reply will still include hidden message headers from the previous email 
that some email clients use to group messages into related threads. The 
"blending" that you refer to is done by the receiving party's email 
client, and usually can be turned off as an option. For example, in 
Thunderbird, turn off the default "threaded" view.
