   Writing as a newcomer to aue:  I find ill-disciplined posting styles   
   irritating.  When one's readership has only the form and content of   
   one's posts to judge one by, it seems to me to be a good thing to   
   observe the norms.   
      
   In my opinion:  posting ill-formed articles is like playing televised   
   snooker with dirty fingernails.  Some might think my attitude shows   
   something akin to OCD...   
      
   Fortunately one is not obliged to read irritating articles.
