Of course, the 'traditional' netiquette is to *edit* what you're
replying to (rather than just including tens or hundreds of lines of an
ever-expanding thread) so that there is just enough context to make your
reply comprehensible.
But habit formed when bandwidth was precious. Very few people bother
these days -- another complaint to lay at the door of corporate practice
with MS Outlook, alongside HTML e-mail. :-(
