Hi Chris,

Not in the cards.

There's nothing to it at all.

Thumbing this message as I perform two other incompatible tasks. No problem.

Although I privately expressed to Co-Mod David that untrimmed tails do not bother me (as my handheld communication devises default to top posting), that does not mean I do not support proper tail trimming.

Even in a democracy, your liberties are limited so they do not impinge on the right of others. The List has always been run as a benevolent dictatorship. A point has been made and a policy has been clearly stated. Trim your tails. End of story.

Contact one of the Mods should you need further instructions. Now let's get back to what this List is all about. Tire threads and battery discussions. :-)
