Instead, they just automatically put a little ">" in front of each line! Next time, just include the RELEVENT passages from the original article. I'm sick and tired of reading 45-line articles which contain 43 lines of "quoted" message and 2 lines of "original" (and I DO use the term loosely) text tacked on at the end. I no longer wait for the end; my newly-adopted procedure is to quit reading any article which has no new text in the first screenful. Perhaps if everyone did this... SJBerry -- SJBerry homxb!disc
