All hands--

When replying to another post, only include the
bare minimum text of the last post (if any at
all) to set the context of your reply. Every
reply post requires some degree of snipping
(i.e., trimming).

We want to read what you have to say, not a second printing of the prior
post.

As a rule of thumb, the material you quote should
never be longer than the new material you}e
posting.
