That's a good point. Sometimes I get a bit lazy or in a hurry.

Although the quotes can sometimes be useful even if in response to the immediately previous message if someone else quotes the post pages later. It can be pretty tiresome to go back through several pages to try to understand what prompted that post. I doubt expect much serious discussion on this thread that will draw responses pages later.
