Steve, you are correct, but all we can do is plant ideas, we can't do
people's thinking for them.

The one liner messages that quote an intire thread are particularly
annoying, but even the one liners themselves don't add much of anything
to a thread.  Having a notion of what happens when someone presses the
send button is helpful.  Thinking about the contents of a post before
you send it is even more helpful.
