It's a hard balance to strike. If no one corrects things like thread hijacking, inappropriate top-posting or insufficient (or nonexistant) quoted material trimming, the overall quality of the list deteriorates. Not to sound like a grizzled oldtimer (whether or not I actually am), the active community on this list isn't nearly as fastidious about these things as it was a few years ago. There are better and worse ways to ride herd on the newbies, but the job must be done. > -- > kr Randall Schulz -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
