   Welcome, XenaScully.  ;-)  When you reply to a story,   
   it would be great if you could possibly <> the   
   story itself out of your post, so that the entire story   
   doesn't get quoted & re-posted in your post.  Eg. this   
   "Conquest of Fear" post contained 6 lines of your own   
   reply followed by 915 quoted lines from the story:   
   http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.tv.x-files.creative/msg/   
   9f8f9e9a9e8a806?dmode=print   
   When you're writing your reply, just highlight the story   
   and delete it.  ;-)  In fact, I just realized that you   
   did successfully edit out the story when you replied to   
   part 3/3 of Dryad's "Quiet, He'll Hear You":   
   http://groups-beta.google.com/group/alt.tv.x-files.creative/msg/   
   7b5a67e0015feb5?dmode=print   
   So if you just repeat whatever steps you took when writing   
   your reply to that story, that should work.  ;-)
