I inflicted it once...I get it EVERY DAY several times
over PER digest! I DIDN't mean or want it to be
personal thing...I honestly tried to delete the name
off it but I gooffed and pasted it and only deleted
one name so I *AM* sorry for that. But I have tried
asking, pleading, emailing the list owner, sending
encouraging or joking posts about it etc etc etc and
people still reply to a message, forget to trim and
the next person who replies, if they forget to trim,
actually sends the 2 messages back through the list to
digest readers again so it gets compounded every time
people reply to an 'untrimmed reply to an untrimmed
reply'!

I'm Sorry! I tried to delete your name as per example
below but i goofed and pasted it and only deleted your
name once. I was trying NOT to make it personal so I
do apologise! Mea culpa! *looks for sword to fall on*

There are so many 'offenders' and I didn't want to be
emailing you and making it 'personal'. Now I know you
can and will take the action you described I will hold
you accountable to your words and I will take the
'appropriate and socially acceptable way' of solving
this problem even though i have tried it before! I
usually try hard not to thrust myself into the 'leper
and black sheep of the colony' role so I will take it
to the moderators now I know they will take action.
