	I'm going to ask you a huge favor here, but could you possibly stop 
being such a pedantic twat?   I'm sorry that asking you to spend 15 
seconds to make your message presentable before shitting it out at the 
other 250 members of this list is such an onerous burden, but it is one 
I'm going to ask you to bear.

	Just because the AOL generation doesn't know anything about proper 
mailing list etiquette isn't an excuse to ignore it when asked politely 
to abide by it.   It's unfortunate that some people have been repeatedly 
unable to manage basic email tasks such as clearly indicating what they 
are responding to, and as such it has required Simba to waste HIS time 
to make it readable for the rest of us.

	Because, to put it bluntly - although I can read your drivel no
matter 
how it's formatted, it is already enough of a waste of my time.

To which I reply:

Several post scripted sections of my reply to Simba's message about the
rules not being his were deleted before I sent my reply.  You could not see
them, because I did in fact adhere to the suggested rules of etiquette and
trimmed my post accordingly.  Your reply to me, however, is not related to
my original post pertaining to ownership of the rules that Simba is asking
us to follow, rather to my adherence to those rules.  My trimmed message is
in accordance with the rules of etiquette set forth by the mailing list
moderator.  If you would like to reply to the actual content of my message,
you may of course do so at your discretion.  Name calling isn't polite, nor
is it helpful.
