Hi All, (WRB speaking)
Marty's "Palm Pilot" standard is not ideal for those of us who selectively archive list postings. I also agree replies should be "short and pertinent", but suggest clarity as more important than shortness in the absolute.
If Kevin needs the "whole thread", he can compile such a personal compilation to keep (without inflicting it on all list subscribers).
This email, as an example, eliminates a lot of keystrokes even as I reply to two emails at once.
It's not always easy to respond clearly without re-writing much of the original post. There have been some I choose to respond "between the lines" of such an actual post.
The subjective exercise of reasonable judgement within acceptable guidelines is probably as close to a standard as is possible, presuming recipients may be reading either individual emails or a day's digest.
Since I'm on individual emails, I don't really know how stuff relates in digest form; but would presume threads easier to follow..
Regards,
WRB
