Damn! 50% of a.a-a is >quoting of complete articles just to say "That's good" or similar... I did it quite deliberately...because I wanted to you to see exactly what garbage is appearing on my screen...it may not be appearing on your newsreader...and it surely cannot be visible to the original poster of the garbage? > Any other newsgroup would flame those posters... So you flamed me! *8-) > PLEASE, cut down quotings!!! I leave in quoted material when I think it is essential for readers to understand the response I am making. In this message I've quoted all _your_ original posting. It would have not made much sense if I had only quoted this one line for example... "> Any other newsgroup would flame those posters..."
