I don't think that's even remotely true, and I don't know where you
got that idea. They don't like long QUOTES of previous posts. I have
never heard of a post being rejected because it was too long, and I
think you owe the list mom's an apology for your description.

Yeah, or write it on a yellow sticky and put it on your monitor until
you get used to it?
What is a "PFK key"? You mean a memorized keyboard sequence that gets
played back? If so, what program or utility do you use for that? I've
been looking for a good one.
