Excellent point Carl.  My MUA seems to clip them, so subject likes like
this one (see above) are almost always truncated.  More to the point,
the subject is in a different place and does not grab my attention when
reading bodies of messages, and when there are hundreds to read, it gets
harder for me to connect the dots.

Don't you just love the irony of me doing to this message what you
pointed out was so wrong?  In this case it was just to prove a point.

Thanks for coming to my defense.

Joe
