paraphrased: "You're not going to get everyone to abide by those rules so I'm going to jeopardy quote now just to irritate you" I dunno, it has worked on some mailing lists I'm on. Of course, we do kick people out if they either can't learn to quote sanely after a reasonable time, or if they deliberately quote improperly because they think people who object are just stupid and old-fashioned and don't understand that they're above all that since they're Nathans and use fucking Microsoft Outlook and not some kind of stoneage text mail client for hippy programmers. People do mistakes sometimes, especially if they're used to jeopardy quoting or whatever. The fact that people *will* do something doesn't mean that something isn't wrong/bad/whatever, as anyone with even a vague grasp of logic will understand. -- Niklas Nordebo -><- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -><- +447966251290 "The day is seven hours and fifteen minutes old, and already it's crippled with the weight of my evasions, deceit, and downright lies"
