*Fer one; it is a miserable waste of band width to clip the ENTIRE
message and repost it in response (as demonstrated here.)
*Fer two; whatever you're using for mail is posting TWO versions of
the same thing when you do. It's that nuisance "MIME" thing. FIX IT,
please, before you post again.
*Fer three; if the subject is being debated so hotly on PhotoPro, why
bring it over here? Perhaps to increase your traffic (hence the MANY
click thrus prominently displayed within your messages?) [Curious,
there are almost as many click thrus in the Manley messages as there are
in the 24 ASPH FS messages!]
*Fer four; since it contained NO Leica information it is considered
proper to note same in the Subj: area (as you can see from my effort
above.) People can then SKIP the meaningless drivel for the more
important meat of the NG.
If being 'maligned' with a site you find objectionable is so terrible,
change your URL or drop it all together. Or, on the other hand, maybe
you could remove the material they find so provocative? Have you paused
to consider you might be promulgating the 'problem' after all?
I apologize to everyone for compounding the issue by this netiquite
demonstration, but maybe we can ALL learn from it??
