Phillip,
I suppose what I was attempting to point out was that changing the format
would give the Clickers such as myself the opportunity to Click and still
not deny the Cut and Pasters their pleasure in cutting and pasting. Just a
gut feeling, but I venture to say there would be very little cutting and
pasting for the purpose of Reply to Author.
I should really have sent this just to you but like most I was just too
damned lazy to negotiate the Cut and Paste. Human nature you know.
