This has probably gone on long enough, but since I started it, the
reason I did was simply to help the poster get the help he wanted. When
I am trying to help someone, feeling that there are these obstacles in
the way of my even be able to understand what the problem is, is
frustrating, and unfair to the person asking for help.
And if it is an answer and I have to page down through 10 blank lines
between each line of text, it is also frustrating since I often learn
from those answers. We do not need artificial obstacles to
communication-- there are enough real obstacles out there.
