I don't know, but you must have really liked it, because you quoted the
whole thing, including his .sig.

my apologies. I don't read this group on a newsreader. I read this
group on Google groups and the format
is probably not the same as usenet.

I suspected that maybe posting from Google Groups was part of the
problem. Then again, some people have figured out how to work around
this. Perhaps some helpful person here can point those who use Google
Groups to some instructions on how to trim posts, including the .sig
lines at the end. Pretty please?

It's really very simple.

One picks the post one wants to reply to, hits Reply, a box comes up with
that post in it, and it's then up to the 'poster' to trim the post. Left
click, hold it down, and highlight what needs to be trimmed, then hit
Delete.

It's just pure laziness for them not to.

But that's what you get from a Google Groups poster.

Thank you for the information.

You don't have to be insulting.
