Mable posted her fears about the newsgroup in the "turkey recipe" thread.
Then she started an entirely new thread, repeating the same message. This
is the repeat thread. Frankly I don't care, but if you are going to hold
people to a standard, then it may as well be a widely accepted standard like
Netiquette.

In both instances, there was no text quoted. She just posted her opinion.

Both of the above mentioned messages were posted in the default Webtv style
with a graphic background with colored text as indicated in the message
