If that's the case, then why did you quote the entire article instead of
just the part you took issue with?  Apart from making things easier on
your reader (and we all want to be read, don't we?), removing all the
non-relevant text makes for shorter downloads for offline mail-readers and 
also helps reduce the clog of traffic on the Internet.

And plus, I'm low on disk-space, so I find this particularly annoying.

Play nice and be polite, everybody,
