How about Katefan0's format of 4 Apr 2006 18:30:44, which consisted of quoting back a paragraph from an earlier message without attribution line or quoting markers, followed immediately (with no indicator of where the quote ended and the reply began) with the reply... and then *that* was followed by a fullquote of the original message (including a second copy of the paragraph already quoted above it). Can *anybody* come up with a coherent defense of such a quoting format as *that*?
They really ought to bring back the punishment of tying people up in stocks in the village square and pelting them with rotten fruit, and apply it to people who post to e-mail lists in senseless formats.
