If I've told you once, I've told you a hundred times,
STOP QUOTING THE WHOLE POST

Somewhere between 50 to a 100 extra freaking lines to ask a one line
question. Sheesh.

If you have to ask then it's probably classified.
Which means that I have to follow protocol.
But if you ask nicely I might forget that you asked.
Then again maybe not.

Agreed... Wolf, please try to snip your posts a little... Just insert a
little:

[Snip <general gyst of post snippage>]

You do NOT need to leave that much crap in for one little line...

Anyways, as an attempt to answer your question...

As far as I can tell, it looks like you somehow had part of a post from a
(??) Final Fantasy Mailing List (??) based on the series of video games,
maybe... I'm not sure, as I don't know of the Mailing List... but then
that's no huge suprise... There's millions of Lists floating around the net...

I don't really know how that got tacked onto the end of the SR post, though...
