Why do you think the option to include the reply was put there for in the
first place, surely not to delete it, that would be stupid.  It is there to
"Save time".  A person who is busy as I am does not have the time to
carefully copy/paste each line.  Maybe you people in other countries have
time to take but here in California it is a very busy hectic life and a
"finger to do a good job" is not on the list of priorities.

I am not angry nor upset as I know you were not when you called me lazy.  I
took that as just some chosen word you decided to use to get your point
across as I choose the words I did to do the same without malice. Why does
anyone have to be upset to make a point.  It is only a choice of words not
emotions.

Who is the lazy one now?  I think your problem with having to click on a
window to answer a reply request is a sign of your laziness not mine.

What concern is it of yours what I choose to fill my hard drive with??  Its
my hard drive and I do with it as I please.  It is my life, I do with it as
I see fit.  My hard drive and any and all email, receipt or not, is not a
concern of yours. Be concerned with your own laziness not others. Be
concerned with your own life, not others.  Be concerned with what you do in
your life not others.  Stop being so nosy in other people's lives. Stay out
of other people's business. I am a firm believer in Freedom and I have a
right to that Freedom as you do and so do everyone else...and although in
other countries Freedom is not a given right,  here on the Internet it is
the "Last Frontier of Freedom", so stop trying to take that away from us
with your insinuations that we have to write email "Your way".

Good then, this whole email then was a show of wits not of the correct way
to use email because my way is the the correct way, for me, as is your way
is the correct way, for you and Esko's way is the correct way for her and
Chris's way is the correct way for him.  So now that we have all had a
lesson on "Freedom of Choice" let's allow that freedom by stop bitching on
how someone does something and get back to what this email list was for in
the first place........Cyber Cafe information.

What do you say, Gene, shall we stop this stupid pety crap and get back to
using this email for what it was ment for???????

This I agree with......email structure is not worth the effort.
