Be nice to see more context and less "[Moderator's Note: . .. have been removed. Please edit quoted ...]" Frankly, the latter gets rather old. Well, I'm going to make an observation on this. I have tried to post a couple of things in which I DID edit but only the header and footer because the post I was responding to was only a few of sentences long and I got mine returned to me. I had no idea what was expected and it just wasn't worth a bunch of emails for something not all that worth the effort. I figured there was no easy way to post what I wanted to reply to and just let it go. OTOH, I really hate to get posts that quote back every word, that, if I'm interested I already read it. As I distilled the message I'm replying to, I do wish others would make some effort to cut down on the verbiage. I like context but I don't need regurgitation of the whole meal, even in bite-size pieces. When I was on the digest I just couldn't deal with all the repeats and quit reading the list until I could go back on single posts. We need some blance in this business.
