You are probably right. Sorry. But still, what I was suggesting is
already in print in the FAQ. Flames are "discouraged." As I said, I was
hoping to bring the issue of civility to the attention of everyone.
Oh, and thank you for pointing out my misstep without insulting me in any
way. The point is taken. I in fact did not intend to insult Erik, but was
suprised by his brushing aside the issue of civility.
I would think that where I write before or after a quote, or whether I
include an attachment would reside after whether I insult someone in terms
of importance (unless that guy who said he would get fired if he recieved
an attachment is still around. I can't imagine how he would be though,
with the way those things are flying around recently he must be on the
street by now.)
