Damn liberals! Post your reply ON TOP and include it all !!!!!!!! www.geocrazy.com Bill Nolan wrote: 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! > DISCLAIMER: > This message is confidential, intended only for the > named recipient(s) and may contain information that > is privileged or exempt from disclosure under ...and, umm.... wassup with this with every post too? ...yanno, cuz like... this is really disappointing.
