Any ideas?

Greg - if you read this - you got any ideas?


The dashes he uses as a separator causes newsreaders to treat his
response as a sig line.
Sig lines usually aren't included in a reply. Maybe he wants it that way.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Didn't realize that. Does the upward arrows used in this reply as a
separator work? I use a separator because the most recent post to
which I am usually replying to does not have the traditional, single,
double, triple right facing arrows that identify a previously posted quote.

On my ipad the dash separator makes the following look like the sig line,
where the new separator has dark print.
