Sorry, Bro but even the best F up occasionally with a long post
containing many <snipped> replies and it's particularly hard replying
to a post that has been mangled, especially when the previous posts
have been deleted. It's OBVIOUS when there's a mistake, but someone
will invariably post an "I didn't say that". Which type of post is
worse is a toss up for me.

attention! Author has one less than quoted text, folks.
