Thank you. This was starting to bother me too, and I don't even get  
it as a digest.

Also folks, please sign your messages. This list is anonymized  
because of spambots.

And also folks, when you quote something that says "summarize . . .  
or just include enough text of the original to give context", don't  
include the entire message you are replying to, three quote levels  
deep. I can't say anything other than it tends to make you look  
stupid. And lazy.
