Since folks want the reply at the bottom, you'll have to scroll down to read
what I have to say :P

you shouldn't have to, if the yoyoes involved in the thread do the
right thing and trim what their responses are to keep them minimal.
like i just did. see how easy that is?

Ah, but then you have to worry about the yo-yos who send back the messages
empty... many is the time I've spent searching through a long email to find
the new content, and found that someone had replied to an email without
saying anything new, they simply hit reply and send.... I've wasted a lot
of time trying to find the new pearls of wisdom from those empty emails,
scrolling down to find it was all quote, plus an extra "To unsubscribe..."
Hmmmmm.... is there a word for an email that is all quoted material, with no
new content? If not, perhaps we can call it a pizqwat...
A point to anyone who knows what pizqwat is from.
