Hi Christian,
On Saturday, October 28, 2000 16:42:52 +0200 in
reference to "Placing subjects in introductions"
you write:
CG> [...] IMO it's just unnecessary repetition of
CG> information already available in the subject header.
So I guess its safe to say that we have a
difference of opinion. In my earlier post, I went
on to say:
>> What I really find confusing [...] is that [...] one can

CG> But why do you add so many whitespaces? When I reply to

Again, I think it's a matter of style. I place the
quoted text to the left with an indented response
to differentiate one from the other. You don't
have to adjust it to the left so if it's
inconvenient, don't bother. IMO it'll read ok.
OTOH, perhaps I do have too much white space & I
may consider reducing it but I think indenting
makes for a more readable dialogue. Have a nice
wknd.
