	Ditto. In fact I have gotten to the point that if I have not
seen anything new after a couple of pages of quote I just skip the
article! I also skip the article if I think it tis getting too long
winded and repititious. So if you want people to *read* what ypou
post, trim the inclusions, and keep the article to the point, without
wasted verbiage.
