I am on digest, so may have a different perspective than those on individual emails, but something has bothered me since I have been sharing on internet forums.
People don't trim their posts, (1-3 seconds of cut-and-paste to include a few words/paragraph to refer to). If challenged by cut-and-paste, then deleting the whole content, and typing a few words of reference takes just a tad more time. When not, content stored is 3-4 times necessary, and though free, seems an irresponsible waste and anti "going green," etc. I also worry about those on digital devices that pay for volume. Here is a link that shows the terms for growing amounts of storage, if you are curious: http://www.t1shopper.com/tools/calculate/ It seems like a nag that may not matter to some, but with a bit of awareness, archives are condensed to substantive content, and very little repetition and WAY less volume. End of (hopefully) polite rant. <smile> Best,Susan Reishus - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
