    Yo Skip,

    I never suggested having NoCom arrested. Nope. And I didn't say I kept
    up with Monkey Island shenanigans. Just visited there and checked it
    out now and then. Visited. Exited.

    As for "...posting this to every bike group 'in the known universe' " I
    know not of what you speak. I've only posted this to arbr. Does it get
    picked up by other newsgroups, etc?

    Wishing you and yours a sincere Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year
    Cheers

    The above has to be one of the worst posts I have ever seen on Usenet in
    terms of format. Can we try to adhere to standard Usenet protocol when
    quoting and posting?

    I have noticed that Joe Keenan's posts are not the same as others. That is
    why I had to write in "Edward Dolan wrote:" Whenever I compose a message, it
    looks fine on my Outlook Express newsreader, but it often looks different
    when it shows up after I have posted. Who knows what is going on.

    Ed,

    You need to watch out for signature separators when quoting.

    I think it's Joe Keenan's newsreader.

    This was my question to him when I responded to one of his posts:

    "What newsreader are you using? It doesn't attribute your quotes and
    therefore requires all the Joe said Skip said [censored] if your post is to be
    responded to piecemeal".

    I agree it is a mess. You are the posting expert. What's the problem?

  5. Hello Tom and Skip:

    If you're seeing a wierd format, blame Google. I'm replying to posts
    directly on the "Google Groups BETA" site. I do not use a newsreader.

    I log in, hit reply, and a box opens for me to type my response.

    Regards,

    Slow Joe

    P.S. Tom, I never did get your direct reponse to my question. Highly
    unlike you to resist a response!! (gr&d).

    Slow Joe,

    I probably never saw your question. There seems to be a propagation
    problem somewhere, with some Usenet news services not picking up "Google
    Groups" postings. I have noted several responses to your posts in recent
    weeks where I never say the original.

    Tom,

    I'll do a <snip> copy and paste when I respond to a post here. I'm
    overseas and for some reason (Qatar "CENSORSHIP"?) I can not get a
    newsreader to work. In the meantime, I've always capitalized RANS.
    Cheers

    Slow Joe
