Ah!- THAT Peter!   8 ])


Folks, some of us mid to old timers will remember when we would get
regular and eloquent wake up calls as to our legibility and content rich
(not!) emails. (I miss mannix) Seems lots of the watch dogs have fallen
off the list, for various reasons.

Lately I have seen the same old things cropping up, and well, sometimes
_I'm_ the one doing it too:

- Omitting a location or other relevant info like model and year.
- Neglecting to put relevant info in the Subject line so folks with no
interest can bypass.
- Dropping just a few vague allusions and expecting everybody to know
what the hell you are referring to- under this category is the inverse:
- Not editing, trimming long emails to avoid quoting the whole thread.
Or not including just a little of the previous post to tie into.

Shoot, I'm not really in the right frame of mind at the moment to be
properly indignant or paternalistic. Hopefully a word to the wise is
enough for those wise to the word.
