It would help to be more aggressive in your snipping.

Oh, I know. I have *****ed to him about it before.

I know nothing of Xnews, but trimming replies is a function that every
newsreader should have little difficulty managing.

I am just doing a service to the community. The less irrelevant crap
people
have to skim through to read what you are writing, the more folks will
read
your posts. Also, your point will be expressed more clearly.

Yes, it does.

Check your cut & paste carefully. A blank space at the beginning can
throw
the whole thing off.

Very.

Nah. My bile is middlin' at best. I will give you the persistence, at
least when I am in the mood to be persistent.

I think you should not try so hard to not conform to the norm.

You may want to notice that some of the more voluminous posters dropped
out
around that time. A few others cut way back.

believe the propaganda.
