    Yes to all. Skipping quoting because mine is a bit awkward to trim. You answered all my questions right up front and then I said yes and told the folks here to expect it and a brief description of what it was.

    I suppose I could edit the echolist to add this but then it looks like a gateway and in function, it's not really. I should also add that Telegram echo in so I can tell folks directly that it's just fine.

    Grin retired since 2009 from the Navy but still working! You are welcome pass my message where need be.

    I wondered if you were still in the Navy or not. When did we meet? Maybe 200 Or 2007?

    I still work at NSWC Dahlgren, doing fun stuff with computers for future Aeg compbat systems.

    And NMCI is still a pain in the ass. Every. Damn. Day. LOL! :)

    Hello Carol!

    No problem. The threading here provides the link-up just fine.
    Good ol' MSGID/REPLYID.

    I was wondering *why* in general you always seemed to quote a
    majority of the message you were replying to.

    Maybe you could utilize the MSGID of the message you are replying
    to and prefix your replies with something like:

    In response to MSGID "7644.asian_li@1:275/100 245b9dfe"...


    You answered all my questions right up front and then I said
    yes and told the folks here to expect it and a brief

    Well.. I am glad you spoke up about it in the echo, 'cuz that
    "voice from the moderator directly" seemed to be the key for a
    couple of people.


    I suppose I could edit the echolist to add this but then it
    looks like a gateway and in function, it's not really. I
    should also add that Telegram echo in so I can tell folks
    directly that it's just fine.

    Take a look at the wording of the elist for a couple of the echos
    that I moderate. Maybe "channels" could be another word that
    might be employed?

    It also reminds me of the times when messages were moved over ham
    radio.

    Dahlgren is hiring. If you're willing to move.

    Austria and S Africa were the 2 with HAM/Packet radio setups. It was very interesting to see!

    Nope, if I was willing/able to move, I'd be in Millington TN doing same job. Thanks though!
