The point is that
we don't want you to quote the article to which you are responding.
Instead, snip out everything that is irrelevant to your response.
Don't complain about misspelled words, poor grammar, punctuation
or capitalization. Quietly fix it if it bothers you.
Paraphrase as necessary to best represent *your* understanding
of what was said in the article to which you are responding.
Subscribers can consult the archives of previous messages
if they feel that you have misrepresented what was actually said.
If the article to which you are responding makes multiple points,
try to isolate each point and insert your response immediately
after each point.
