[Strawbale] quote selectively and ascii only please



Please,

Could people responding to this list use ascii only postings and quote selectively to e-mails you are replying to. This saves a lot of frustration. In general the above practice is seen as good manners on mailing lists because it saves all participants connection and reading time. This is especially applicable to most Europeans because we pay for our dial up connections.

Below is a sample section of the last digest sent out to me. About 70% of the digest looks like this. Which I have to plough through to sift out useful information.
