   It would be much easier to read you posts if you provided some follow-up   
   material to provide contextual content so that readers know to whom your   
   comments are directed and what the salient points are.   
      
   This can be achieved by using a real newsclient for posting to the   
   Usenet instead of the cringe-making google-groups which is much-loved by   
   clueless newbies. Using google-groups is rather like venturing onto the   
   thundering, multi-laned super information highways of the Usenet on a   
   pogo stick. If you're so poverty-stricken that you can't avoid a Usenet   
   compliant client such as Turnpike, Thunderbird is free.   
      
   If you persist with using the frightful google-groups try to configure   
   it correctly to provide follow-up material:   
      
   (1) click "show options" next to the poster's name, and   
   (2) click "Reply" in the line:   
   Reply | Reply to Author| Forward | Print | Individual Message   
      
   This will put carets, quotations and attributions in your message, just   
   as other newsreader programs do.
