Done!  Now, if only we can get folks to slice off the excess verbiage in
their replies!  I read this list at work in digest mode, and not only do I
see entire emails quoted, but then replies to those replies, with the
entire original quoted again.  Uaugghhh!

<tip type="etiquette">

Do you want to be a quiet hero to your fellow list members?  As a bit of a
game, try to see how little you can quote from the original post when you
are replying... often, only a line or two - or even a word or two - will be
enough.
