The problem is that when you REFUSE to quote the body of the articles you are referring to, it makes it very difficult for others to know to who or what you are replying. Not everyone uses google (thankfully), and as such you should learn how to use Google to quote enough contextual information when you reply so the rest of the readers know what you are talking about. -- Randy Howard (2reply remove FOOBAR) .
