[Summit] PLEASE TRIM POSTS

[Emlyn Addison]

Let's keep this in perspective: it's no more or less annoying than being
cut off in traffic or standing behind someone yakking on their phone. Not
"intolerable", but inconsiderate; modern life in a dense society!

But now that Jeff has turned me on to the real cause of my woes (smack on
forehead) I'm seeing the rather obvious reason behind all the
miscommunications and general puzzlement.

OK, I'm off to churn some butter now.
