The rules here are very simple.  Snip what you don't wish to reply to 
(yes I know I forget sometimes), intersperse your answers to what you do 
want to respond to.  Apart from that *NEVER* top post.  Other than that 
how you can state "It actually pulls things out of context" baffles me, 
unless you were taught to write top to bottom, left to write, or 
something similar.  To put it another way M$ Outlook no more rules the 
world than does the BDFL :)
