David Morris defended his right to include as much of previous messages in
his replies as he deems fit, and suggested that others want this, too.
Right on! (Although most of the posters who have had something to say in
this thread don't agree; include me in that number.) Morris, and others,
may not know that some P-list subscribers must listen to their email
because they can't read it, and the inclusion of all that redundant
material makes it very difficult for them. May I gently suggest that
instead of injecting brief responses into huge blocks of a previous
message, why not briefly summarize the point to which you respond? If you
don't think this makes a difference, subscribe to the P-list Digest for a
while and see how much redundant material is passed around every day.
