My email wasn't meant to offend anyone. It's usually considered bad form to reply to digest mode as list headers are mangled and don't follow the conversation chain when viewed in a client browser. There are all sorts of indentation problems with multiple quoted sources, again when trying to reply to these things. In my opinion using digest mode is analogous to a google search. You're looking to digest information not necessarily interact with it. And it wasn't meant to imply that people who use digest mode are in any way outside of the community. Again, digest mode is a way of consuming information. Not interacting with it. I apologize if I offended anyone. I can assure you that wasn't my intention.
