[78-L] Edit lines, please!

[David Lennick]

With all due respect, that's never going to happen. I don't know if more people 
are on individual messages or digest, but in the 13 years I've been on 78-L, 
the trend has been to quote most if not all of the previous message when 
replying. And more often than not, over-editing means you have to try and find 
the previous parts of the thread or ask what a reply refers to. Worst are 
replies that quote nothing.
