Judy when I say it didn't work, I mean that what I highlighted and attempted to delete by pressing the backspace button, didn't get deleted.

You selected what you wanted to snip and hit Delete, and what happened? The whole "Reply" button thing is a red herring Richard threw in just to be confusing. Ignore it. Obviously you have to be in the Reply window if you want to delete anything. BTW, as for attributions, for some reason he doesn't want to admit he got attributions wrong, so he's throwing a whole load of bullshit at you on that as well. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <sharelong60@...> wrote : Richard, I just followed your instructions for snipping and it didn't work. First I tried it after I hit the Reply button and then I tried it before I hit the Reply button. Any suggestions appreciated. On Saturday, May 24, 2014 10:30 AM, "'Richard J. Williams' punditster@...

Also, you known that in order to read Ann's bottom quotes in purple, you have to scroll down to the bottom. With Barry, his blue text is almost always at the top. And then there's MJ who is using Yahool Mail - sometimes I don't even know what he is talking about.

Go figure. >
