    Thank you - I agree. We've got these net cops out there that imagine
    that they know something about how to post, then they decide everyone
    who doesn't understand their twisted reasoning is some kind of idiot who
    doesn't understand usenet posting conventions.

    If we could just get people not to quote back someone's entire 50K post
    for a one word reply..that is a suggested convention worth following.
