overquoting is not so good, but its easier and more clear to answer a series of
questions, after each question..
some put answers at the end, some at the begining.. of each overly long message,
but i personally think its better to have the whole picture than to have only a
small part of the larger question or problem..

this list is a great resource for many..
don't leave just because some messages are too long, just delete them.. :-)
