Honestly, Don, I could give a Rat's ass about long posts.

Its not worth anyone's time to bother to snip the trailing end of a post.
What the hell does 3k (or even 3k x 100 people?) matter compared to 10
seconds of my time?

I agree that this post was a particularly abusive/careless case, but
seriously, commenting on stuff as petty as this raises the signal to noise,
doing more harm than good (at risk of being a hypocrite).

Bandwidth is cheap, time is expensive.

Yikes... that was a particularly nasty post.  I'm not trying to bee an
asshole, just saying that honestly it doesn't matter that much.
