Potioncat(also talking to the group):
I've been frustrated at times when a person snipped too much of the 
post they were responding to and it became hard to follow the 
point.  And I've been frustrated on a dial-up connection for a 
poorly snipped post to take forever to load, particularly if the 
responding portion was short. And I try to snip just the right 
amount myself, not always sure I did a good job.

It wouldn't be a bad idea for all of us to go back and review the 
rules.  Here's my attempt at a link:

OK, everyone, click on the link and take a look.  I'll be right 
there.
