Maybe I'm mistaken, but I thought the social list was for organising social events rather than random babbling about the company you happen to be annoyed with this week?
You must be new to the ALUG lists, in addition to being mistaken. If you read them regularly you'll find that Mark makes useful contributions to this and other organisations.
I say above that you must be new, as most of those subscribed to the various ALUG lists, conform to the norm by trimming their quotes, see: http://www.greenend.org.uk/rjk/2000/06/14/quoting.html http://tinyurl.com/b4wfc
It is also quite unusual for those subscribed to this list to use pejorative phrases when replying to posts to the lists.
