ADMIN: Trim your posts

A new trend in our postings has emerged -- people quoting hundreds of
lines of text to add three or four new lines.

If there is a lot more quoted material than new material in your
posting, there is something wrong. If you can't take the time to trim
the .signatures, footers, and other extraneous materials from your
postings, it is not clear why people should take the time to read
them.

In short, trim what you quote.

Perry
