Polite request -------------- Could I suggest that when people send replies to messages on the www-html list that they *include* enough of the original message to which they are replying (or the thread so far) to make the reply comprehensible. I frequently get messages that consist of a reply to a question I know nothing about (and can't easily deduce from the response). This (a) is irritating and (b) means I may be missing out on a interesting discussion (which is irritating too!) This is especially the case when the reply is sent To: the original sender and Cc:'d to the list, as it feels like I'm eavesdropping on a private party. Just a thought to help make the list more usuable.
