|Well, that just _looks bad_ in long threads. Also it is a bit confusing.
|For example, if I know that one specific person uses one specific
|character or character combination (other than ">" or "> ") for quoting
|then I tend to associate that combination with that person. The
|confusing thing about this is that the quoted text is specifically _not_
|written by that person. A plain ">" (or "> ") is much easier to read,
|IMO (also, my news reader uses a different colour for lines beginning
|with a '>', but not for lines beginning with, e.g. ":" or "++").

'---------------------------

Or |, ' and . I assume ?
