In our discussions of various subjects, some of them going on for several pages, there are often long posts that make several points. Some folks, when responding to a particular point, will quote a whole long post containing that point. Don't do that. Cut the clutter. Quote just the part that pertains to your remark.

To respond with a quote - go to the post you wish to quote - click the quotation mark on the upper right and the quote will appear with your response box. And as Steve has said - edit the quote to keep our eyes from glazing over.

Large font is also kinda fluffy.
Like putting marshmallows in the microwave.
Just sayn'
Everything works in theory.
Reality is how you determine if something works or not.

if you're at your computer, just type "CTRL+" and each time you type those two keys simultaneously, the entire page will grow in size and make reading much easier.

Telegrams were paid per word, so it was customary to leave out little words considered unnecessary.
From a studio publicity department to their star vacationing in Mexico:
How old Cary Grant?

Old Cary Grant fine. How you?The inevitable often happens.
