I would like to STRONGLY reiterate (no pun intended) what Don said here.
 We have been over this time and time again.  I know I have been guilty of
this at times due to pure laziness, or simply being in a hurry to reply to
a comment on this list.

Please be careful when you reply to a comment on here.  Leave the subject
in place just as it was and delete the excess below your reply!  There are
too many reasons to explain WHY you should do this.  Just please do it.
 Think before you hit the send button...PLEASE!
