If one fool's answer to everything was not basically "don't use
'RageMaker', but InDesign", then maybe I might have wanted to stay for
more than half-a-dozen messages and therefore try to find some
workaround for ONE newsgroup out of the 100+ I subscribe to not wanting
quotes of previous messages.

An idiot like that in most newsgroups and forums would either be
killfiled, labelled a troll and / or banned. For example, if I went
into a Star Trek froum and answered questions with "Star Drek sux,
watch the new Battlestar Galactica instead."

I simply have no wish to have to deal with such idiots. As usual, it's
a few idiots that spoil it.

There's also no real reason that there can't be a InDesign and other
Adobe newsgroup in the Usenet listings, even Microsoft has lots of
them.
