No. Certain SNIPs are justified to remove great wads of redundant info, but the general context of the entire conversation is very useful. Have you ever walked into the middle of a conversation and left with completely the wrong end of the stick? Have you ever used the archives to search for a solution to your problem? Can we all refrain from posting in HTML or MIME or anything other than plain text? > I hope some of you don't get annoyed by my suggestion. Does anybody concur? Not annoyed. Not concurring.
