WOW. I never thought of that. Maybe that's what he meant. Thanks. I will comply - on both counts.

Sometimes we forget to trim replies, causing the same text to be sent repeatedly and greatly increasing the bandwidth of our group.
This can be a real problem for people who prefer to get the digest instead of individual messages, making the digest hard to read. Another problem is that many people live in remote areas without broadband, having to deal with slow connections.
With this in mind, please be kind and trim non essential parts of any reply, especially any included photos. Bandwidth is a precious commodity to many, and should be conserved. Even those with unlimited broadband should consider that every bit sent requires energy, which is often produced by polluting methods. If being kind doesn't appeal, perhaps being green will.
