Two things. One, take your personal feelings off the list (this
applies to other people, too, Alex, not just you); you have
something to say to someone, say it to them personally. I don't
care what you feel about Patrick Foley.
Two. I'm tired of receiving messages with the previous four
appended on. I believe one of the rules of etiquette for list use is
that you *not* include all of the previous message, much less the
previous three, which we all will have received a few times a piece.
It is okay to include appropriate snippets of previous messages
that you are replying to, and if that is the whole message, then
fine. However, the several messages appended to this most recent
message were far removed from what you were talking about.
Again, Alex, this does not apply just to you.
