What is [snip]

"[snip]" Is the symbol used to indicate where the current writer has deleted
a part of the old text which is considered to be irrelevant to what the
writer is saying. It enables a subsequent reader to look back to an earlier
version of the thread in order to refresh his/her memory of what has gone
before, just in case it actually was relevant after all.
