Greetings: Please be patient. The internet is growing exponentially, with countless new users who have no idea what USENET is; I personally have no clue. Recently we had a windy discussion here about the use of too many CAPS and exclamation points !!! One of the moderators pointed out that eventually these things become self-regulating, with members adapting to the overall site style; it's a natural communication evolution. I am willing to learn netiquette if it helps make everything work better, but please remember also that for many users here English is a second language - - it's tough enough as a first language. Also, there are times when I find it useful to see the original post in the reply. If I do a filter for recent posts, and I stumble upon a post that is a reply-without-quoting, then I have to go find the original post to see what it's about. People do things for reasons; maybe some reasons are better than others, but with a little time and patience we will eventually all be on the same page. Cheers, Mark
