>> You're just wasting bandwidth...

And you don't consider this message more of the same?  C'mon, quit
using "bandwidth" as an excuse to shut other people up.  If *YOU*
really cared about bandwidth, why is there such a large banner at
the end of each message you post.  If *YOU* really care about
bandwidth why didn't you simply mail your message rather than
posting it here.

Personally, I could care less about "bandwidth".  The crazy
headers and trailers on all these messages consume well over 50%
of the data sent around here.  If someone was really concerned
about bandwidth on the node they would change the way this info
gets transmitted (i.e., compact the audit trail/header and only
present it when someone requests it [e.g., when replying to a message]).
