[Felvtalk] A suggestion that could make it easier to keep up with posts...

When we reply ( apparently it doesn't make much difference if we hit
reply or reply all) it would be helpful to erase those parts of the
posting that reference earlier discussions and do not have relevance to
the current posting.... This also prevents having your message held up
because it exceeds the allowable line limits..
It can be disconcerting when one is in a hurry but would like to read
responses to earlier questions... they are often tucked WAY far down in
a message body such that you have to wade through a thousand lines that
you have already read a thousand times to get to it....
Try it... it could help...
