What is "this", which "quoting police" and why would you expect it to?
You're top posting, which won't satisfy those that want a proper
style, and you're quoting only the relevant texts, which won't satisfy
the morons who accuse posters of lying because they didn't include
extraneous material in their quotes. FWIW, I believe that you quoted
exactly the relevant portion, so my only objections would be that the
quoted material didn't follow the attribution line that you didn't
have and precede your response.
I see that you're using Thunderbird; does it have an option to
continue displaying the original article while composing a reply, and
to paste text formatted as a quote? Does it have an option for
generating an attribution line?
