As most know, I snip as much as possible, however, responding should be done 
BELOW the text referenced. Recently on another elist I'm on, some decided to 
continue their "rude" posting at the top. Some of us responded with the 
admonishment that it's considered rude on the Net. to do so. They continued, 
and we simply ignored their posts. Most now respond below the referenced text 
as they should.
