This beautiful piece of artwork deserves no other comment from me.  I'll let
the rest of the readership decide what type of person you really are.

I might add that that is an incredibly wasteful use of network bandwidth,
and is not looked highly upon in common Usenet practice.  Are you aware that
a large population of Internet users still pay by the minute over relatively
poor connections?

If you wanted to unambiguously identify a message to which you are replying
to, either quote specific chunks of text (the relavent parts), or specify a
message ID. The cognizant reader will know how to use a usenet news archival
site, such as Deja.com, to locate the article and read the original for
himself.
