But it sure adds to the digital clutter!

The reason why the old-timers around here are sticky about this is that
we believe we are writing for the mailing list archives.  Gmail-style

I agree wholeheartedly, Tom.

I realize that a lot of posters to these lists can't be bothered to
save a few seconds of my time.  That's fine; I tend to stop reading
their messages right away.

Ditto.
