    3. Gosh, this is annoying. Amidst the spam, tonight I found maybe 20 posts from list members, including lots of repeats of the *same over-size post*. I don't know about you, but one of the things I HATE about some mail lists is the endless quoting, until I can't make any sense of the question, information, query, and answer. I refuse to allow this list to descend to that. All of us know how to snip un-needed quoting in our replies. (If you do not, and need some help, please write [email protected] and I'll help.) So people, please take that extra minute to snip the extra, and while you are at it, check your Subject line. We're all busy people, and lots of us do not have time to read every post. This is your advertising! Use it. Our top message size is 10K, but I have no problem letting a legitimate larger post through. I really do have a problem with one that is a sentence or two, and 15K of quoted material! Please snip wisely; your fellow list members will thank you, and I will thank you, a thousand times over. Thanks for your collective wisdom, Valorie
