... instead of adding to the noise on the main list? Because it's people on the main list that are causing the quoting problem, and need to have it held in their faces far more often than it is. I completely agree with LarrySheldon here and I see the same crap in countless other mailing lists, and it still astounds me that people I thought were intelligent and list-etiquette-aware can become so complacent about stuff like this. F'krissake it generally takes ONE KEYSTROKE to remove all the quoted content from a reply composition in most mail software, there's absolutely NO excuse. [That's your "select all" shortcut used before typing, in case you're wondering.] I would argue that this is not a meta-issue, it points out a central, fundamental flaw in daily practice among people who claim to be proponents of efficient use of bandwidth and resources. THINK ABOUT IT. _H*
