[Sunhelp] Mailers/Replies and off topic.

[Bruce Mitzit]

Yes but those of us who don't use digests find it useful to have the 
whole thread in one post. --That way the "keepers" can be kept to one 
post (but, more practically, two or three).And, often, without the 
originating post quoted, you can't figure out what's being talked 
about.

If you don't want to read the quoted text, don't scroll!
