[Damian Nichols]

PS.... disregard my liberal comment... I was just trying to be funny after reading Bill's message (which I did find entertaining... but a bit harsh).... then after reading Brian's email I realized I was being sucked in.... Oh well.....
 
Long live the queen!!!

Hmmmmm... Posting etiquette? Do we find that in Emily Post? Just who is
the authority? It seems that people with slow connections want posts
trimmed, while those with broadband couldn't care less. Well, if you are an
advocate of trimming, I'm sorry to tell you that I am adding to the alleged
problem. I teach computer science, so I am educating a generation of
college students that the correct thing is to include the message to which
you are replying.

Besides, post trimmers are probably commies who watch CNN instead of
Foxnews, and voted for Kerry. 

Now, the other controversy is whether your reply should go above or below
the quoted text. I vote for above, with the old posts below, and the oldest
at the bottom.

Hmmmm...can't help but think that if it is 'that hard'
to keep up, imagine what they go thru in attempting to
find caches! eh? 

Then again, I'm sure the difficulty really equates to
'time'. Easier to be lazy because come on now... it
doesn't take Einstein to figure out how to trim &
still maintain continuity of a thread. on>Ohhhh, but wait, *duh* I'm a woman - of course it's
easy!
