A question about calories - metabolism and "starvation mode" and Weight Watchers
HUGE SNORT, Lee, reminds me of Fred

In article , Doug Lerner wrote: But along with bottom posting comes a responsibility to snip out unnecessary parts of the thread to avoid excessively long posts that force people to scroll down just to see "me too" after 500 lines. It can also be argued that just because you're posting above all that, doesn't mean you don't still have a responsibility to snip. Leave enough for context, of course, but if you're just going to agree, you don't need the whole thing, regardless of whether it's top or bottom. When I post, I snip out the stuff I'm not addressing, because either way, nobody wants to scroll through it. Don't forget, there're still people out there who page through usenet, and have to scroll through everything a top-poster leaves on just to get to the next post, not even to a 'me too' in the post they're currently reading. Tops, bottoms, and swinging both ways. We better watch it or this will become *very* off-topic -Tay |
