	Just because people submit a follow up letter
	doesn't mean that the article is going to be the next consecutive article
	that will appear in any given news group.  Please include some modest
	reference to the person or news article to which you are responding and
	people will have a better idea of what you are saying.

1) Notes users sometimes forget that not everyone on the net is as
fortunate as they are (notes groups responses with the original article).

2) The particular response you are flaming about quotes the relevant
passages from the original article. I consider this to be sufficient
information to understand what is being discussed even if you don't.
