Please, please trim the excess baggage from your quoted postings.

[Bill Freeman]

There are some people here who regularly send in a one or two 
sentence remark, followed by many unnecessary and irrelevant 
paragraphs of quoted text, even frequently including multiple copies 
of the MacDV list's sign-off message.  I presume these are from 
people who receive the list as individual messages rather than digest 
form.

I don't know how anyone expects to edit video who can't even learn to 
edit their cotton picking email.  The excess quoting has gotten 
completely out of hand on this list.  It  is an annoying waste of 
time to everyone who receives the MacDV list.  Please stop this 
ridiculous waste of bandwidth.
