Ye gads! Yet another thing I don't like about web forums. Perhaps
it
ought to automatically limit responses to ancient posts? Or, at
least,
display a huge warning to someone who tries to respond to one.
My personal opinion is that web forums and mailing lists such as this
one do not co-exist happily. They are distinct modes of communication
and should not be mashed together, largely because of the quoting
issue. Web forums can often do without it and lists almost never can.
