I'm claiming the attribution of the quotes is clear given standard
usenet conventions. You can claim it is slightly more work to
check the attribution (by one level of '>') but this is not
rocket science.
You'd have no complaint if I had included a single word that Sorni had
typed as a comment, which most readers would miss anyway, so your whole
point is just plain silly.
The quotes I put in where generated by my newsreader - I always let
the newsreader handle it because the chances of messing it up are
far less. Modern newsreaders sometimes highlight each level of quotation
in a differnet color, so it is very easy to distinguish one person's
comment from another. If you guys have that much trouble, get a better
newsreader.
