If a question is asked, why isn't a simple answer adequate? Most especially if the response is immediately responded to after the question.

I also see multiple re-posts ad nauseam in a single response.

Why do this?

Very few times do I see such re-posting help clarify, if anything, re-posting wily nily seems to muddy things up.

Rant off.

03Lightningrocks,

Now that's what I'm used to seeing - 5 re-posts for one response.

Excellent work.
