Doncha just hate it when someone quotes an entire thread and adds one word
and then reposts the whole shebang?

Almost as annoying as the "Mime Format"  hypertext drivel.  Gee folks this
is an alphanumeric ascii text exchange, set your mailer to send plain text
so some of us don't have to wade through the drivel to get to your finely
crafted replies.  grumble grumble...And if you just do a little judicious
cut and paste the recipients and readers will get the picture rather than
quoting the entire thread.
