Subject: Attn: Digest-format readers of LUG

ATTENTION: READERS OF LUG IN *DIGEST* FORMAT:

Someone pushed his or her quote button and then replied. As a result, an
ENTIRE previous digest of messages was re-sent, forming a new digest
over 91,000 characters longggggggggggggggg.

Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

Please don't do that! If your mail utility has an 'excerpt' function,
use it to quote just the particular post you wish to respond to
publicly. If not, 'manually' copy the relevant excerpt into a reply or
new-post template.

Sorry for the rant, but this is damned annoying, and there is no valid
reason for it to happen.
