A few tips on keeping your replies well-organized so they don't turn 
into tangled messes:

* Always leave a blank line between each section of quoted material 
and each section of reply, so they don't run together and make it 
hard to tell which is which.

* Trim down quoted material to the minimum needed to establish 
context.  Snip out unnecessary parts, especially signature blocks and 
list footers; there's no need to quote that stuff back.

* Put your answer after the question you are answering instead of 
before; this is not the Jeopardy! game show.
