Default Re: Fyron, I apologize.

SJ:
The long splits (such as my post, #529562 - 06/16/07 08:59 AM, or my post, #529829 - 06/17/07 11:34 AM) are actually for my benefit more than anything else; it lets me go through the post I'm responding to pretty much line by line, making fairly sure I'm responding to pretty much everything I want to (Fyron has, in the past, demanded that I address point X that was semi-buried in the middle of a post). It also lets me be very clear of what sentence of mine is meant to addresses what sentence of the one I'm quoting.

The scattered fragment quotes (my post, #529738 - 06/16/07 09:02 PM) was done that way because that was about all I could think of to make it clear what I was objecting to.

I don't generally think of the formatting as annoying, or the size of the web page as overly important - as I type this up, my "Show All" view of this thread is only 241,291 bytes - a trifle, at least on my network connection. It's understandable someone else might feel differently, though, now that I think about it. Hmm.

Well, it's unlikely that Fyron and I will get into another argument soon, anyway.

The cleanest way (IMO) to do multiple quotings is via Bold vs italics tags:

Hey hey hey
Come on, we don't need fat albert quotes!

Your cities will burn with our vengeful fire
Hey, you were the one who attacked me! I'm the one who should be vengeful!

etc.
