[MOSAIC] Digest Burden

Keith, I have to agree and disagree with you. There is a burden involved with being a digest subscriber, but it is not 20 off topic messages. 
   
  As a subscriber to the digest, I have to tell everyone that the biggest burden to digest subscribers is folks who absent-mindedly forget to delete the previous discussion text before posting their reply. I know it's not intentional, but it does scramble things up significantly. (A real comprehension issue for me!) Somemtimes I cannot tell who is responding, or what they are saying because everything is so heavily embedded in previous posts and all the "junk" that's tagged onto each post.
   
  I've been guilty of this in the past, and don't claim that I've totally erradicated it from my habits, but I do try to only include the most succint points I'm responding to when I reply. And I appreciate others who do, as well. 
   
  Just my two cents.
