[Boatanchors] Courtesy Please

That's not, IMHO, the right way to handle the situation.  Go into your 
email client, and set it up to "start my reply ABOVE THE QUOTE."

In the old days, carefully pruning emails was a courtesy to people who 
were paying for their service by the byte, or had limited bandwidth.  
Here in the 2!st Century, I find it annoying to encounter a pruned reply 
in a thread I just became interested in, and not knowing what was going on.

If your reply is at the top of your post, it doesn't really matter how 
much junk is below it.
