Folks, please edit your messages.  We are getting more and more messages
that are including multiple copies of messages and PaddleWise trailers.
When you don't edit, we have fewer *original* messages that go out in
the digest version and more digest versions sent out with a lot of
duplicate stuff that is really garbage at that point.

Edit means only include that part of the message to which you are
replying that is necessary to get across your point.  Do *not* copy
in the entire message.  And don't copy in the PaddleWise trailer.  We
don't need to see it over and over (as well as the same message over
and over).

Please be considerate of your fellow subscribers.

Here's a trick if anyone is using Eudora for their email client.
When you read a message that you want to respond to you can highlight
the portions of text that you want respond to then click on reply.
The program will only include text which you have highlighted in your
response.

Another trick is friggin' configure your reader, whatever the type to NOT
include the original.  It's easy to do  < tools/option/send in OE> and makes
for alot cleaner message.  Cut and pasting isn't that difficult and ONLY the
relavant stuff.

sorry this message doesn't have any paddling info but I get tired of reading
all the garbage too.
