You know, I never really belived this until now. I've always used snipping to keep the space down. I keep things I will comment upon, and snip out the stuff I am unable/unwilling/can't comment on. Usually, if I concurr with my debating opponents point, I make note of that. It never occured to me to use snipping as editorial re-wording, in order to twist the debate back into a structure that more fits my point of view. That's intellectually dishonest. I'll certainly watch for that in the future. _______________________________________________ Biofuel mailing list Biofuel@sustainablelists.org http://sustainablelists.org/mailman/listinfo/biofuel_sustainablelists.org Biofuel at Journey to Forever: http://journeytoforever.org/biofuel.html Search the combined Biofuel and Biofuels-biz list archives (50,000 messages): http://www.mail-archive.com/biofuel@sustainablelists.org/
