So you didn't read the original post!
Maybe you should go back to that and read it.

Quoting context means we wouldn't have to. If you don't quote context,
your post will only be understood by those who feel your post is of
sufficient interest to be worth going back to the previous post to read
what the context was.


Most people would have read the previous post and then read responses to
them.
Bit like the etiquette between top posting where you don't have to trawl
through 40 odd responses to get to the latest response.


But then you get the response at the item to which it refers. If all the
responses are bunched at the top, the responder has to guess which of the 40
original remarks it refers to.

Rather than bottom posting when people can't be bothered to snip the
context!

I think enough has been said on this, it's a garden newsgroup not a net
nanny site let's get back to garden topics!
