2nd - is this what you're looking for?
Define: Degauss
actually, asking the question in the subject will draw a quicker response usually

But you must continue it in the sentence, such as

Subject: " Degauss What is that for?"
Body: "Can anyone tell me what "Degauss" is for?"

But you're not supposed to do that. Subject is NOT the start of your sentence, so please do what I stated (as is suggested by the mods...)

That subject was fine with me. (y)

If the question is simple enough to be asked in the subject, why not? :p
