Not exactly the highest content message we have seen this
morning, and then proceeded to quote several hundred lines
intact.

Please, please can people be more careful in quoting full
messages. It is a prevalent disease throughout usenet, and
apparently the result of a flood of relatively new users
who either don't know the conventions or (hard to believe
but true in some cases) don't know how to do partial quoting.

Just think, if I followed this practice, then this message
would have the same several hundred lines attached to it!!

Thanks for thinking about this when you post!
