Yep, understood. However it did have the original author's initials (albeit 
after yours, showing that you quoted it as well). I was just making sure you 
were aware that whatever software was used was actually okay, it was just a 
matter of replying to a reply, which usually doesn't happen.

Same, but some people just hit the reply button on the current message rather 
than going back. As long as the software somehow displays who originally wrote 
it, it's still able to be figured out.

If you notice, though.. this is why we went through the whole ordeal of the 
quoting initials. Had I done that with Golded or Slyedit, it *should* have 
displayed without your initials, and a double ">" after the original poster's 
(ie: DA>>). Right?

Man, did we just make this topic confusing as all get out. ;)

Regards,
Nick
