Me:

I would also like to add my two cents (actually well thought out and after
having had my fill of a DQ Peanut Buster Parfie).  I feel that answering
each post will save people from having to put there posts into an even more
confusing format like this....

If a person is responding to multiple post then the time spent downloading
10-20KB replies and trying to find the pertenent infomation they were
looking for will become frustrating and even MORE time consuming, not to
mention the possiblities for misquoteing (Oh Lord,..... do they misquote). 
If it ain't broke don't monkey around with it to see if you can make it run
even better then it was designed to. :-)

If this were designed to be a Scholarly Newsgroup then the posts Im sure
would look ooooooohhhh so elagent in there appearence and the people reading
them would say to themselves "OoOoOoh what a brilliant and eloquent way of
posting a response to the same descussions that show up bi-monthly."

However, I was under the impression that this was a
"clap-your-hands-everybody-clap-your-hands" Joy filled Form of Fellowship,
type of Newsgroup.  Perhaps after reading the Netiqette again I can get a
better handle on this newsgroup and its function. Or I can ask Bro Nally to
clarify exactly how we should all post and respond to each others posts.  
Maybe we can make a newsgroup look like one of THOSE churches were all the
women  dress like the Pastors wife and all the men dress like the Pastor. 
That really sounds fun to me...........NOT!  ;-) 

Yours in Christ,
