Again: There is NO NEED to "scroll" through redundant stuff! You need to EDIT 
the irrelevant stuff away! What's so hard to understand about this?

Do you notice that this posting, although it is deep in an ongoing thread, 
covers barely half a screen page, yet it comes right to the point and contains 
enough quoted context so that anybody jumping onto the thread at this point 
sees what it's all about, while someone who has followed the thread from the 
beginning doesn't fall asleep scrolling through pages of ground that's been 
covered many times over?
