Rick, you're right about the trimmings. I myself am guilty of not trimming many times, as it comes natural to just hit REPLY, ANSWER and SEND. Will try to do a better job myself at it. Also... please remember... when trimming, please do not remove parts of previous posts that explain the problem. That should be left in, even if it means a larger post, and even if the previous pasts are very large. Someone that's reading it for the first time only has that to look back at. ---Troth ----- Original Message ----- From: DH (Rick) Holmes To: PCTT Sent: Monday, September 01, 2003 5:33 PM Subject: -=PCTechTalk=- Bandwidth waste IMHO, it is regrettable that so many regularly do not edit the postings to which they reply. The moderators have asked for this several times since I have been on this list. I enjoy the list. I have received help, and hopefully given help where I can. However, the failure to edit postings, such as is happenning currently, is costing me time and wasting bandwidth. I expect to be on fibre optic/wireless cable this week sometime, so it will cost me money as well and I don't have enough to waste. We have to live within our means.
