Thank you for publicly saying something about responding to a post, Steve.
I can't tell you how many times I get private emails about such things and
then I have to put out a post about housekeeping (as I call it).  It is
part of list etiquette (in general).  And yes, it is best to cut out
part(s) of the message that does not pertain to your post.  Just like the
old fashioned days of writing a letter.  We did not send back the original
letter to the person who wrote us.  We referenced back to what was stated
in the previous letter.  With the Internet, we've all become quite lazy and
don't reference back to the previous email.  We let the darn program copy
it below...and copy the other one below...and the other one.  I've seen
some over 10 pages long!  I know it's really frustrating for Digest and Web
Board/Archive readers.
