Seriously, though, I think Andrej sometimes quotes *nothing* (no offense
for picking on you Andrej), and couple that with the newsgroup's
seemingly random decision to start a new thread, or put a reply at the
same level, I sometimes have no idea what he's talking about :)
There are extremes, of course. I, for one, take pains to make sure I
quote about the "right" amount of context. I know it's time well spent
because every second I save for one reader is multiplied by many of
them. I think it's very jarring to see a 300-line discussion quoted and
followed by a brief answer. If that much context is necessary, I'd have
no business reading that message unless I actually followed the
conversation.
