[trimmed excellent discussion of the merits of trimming and interspersing 
replies]

NoOp, I applaud your attempt to get some consistency of posting in the LO 
lists, but I fear you're flogging a dead horse. This is one of those topics 
that will never go away, and I have seen it discussed ad nauseam | infinitum 
on many different lists since I starting using Usenet over ten years ago.

Nevertheless, I wish you luck. :)

Bob
