Guys,

Please consider trimming your posts.

A recent post to this thread generated three quarters of a meg of message
traffic in quotes alone.  Not huge in today's terms, but also with no
benefit.

The bigger issue is readability.  Having some context is nice, but a
context to content ratio of 2:1 strikes me as counter-productive.

Food for though.  Flame away. :-P  And apologies to those with threaded
mail readers.

-Peter
