I've given up correcting that particular quality :). I am really really curious how you manage to do it though. I mean, (1) highlight text with mouse, (2) click the 'Reply' that pops up, (3) start typing your reply. In HTML terms, what you're quoting is... a section of text enclosed by tags.

I'm reading about political science, super PACs, extremism, think tanks, dark money. This is better than a season of Billions!!

Well now that you keep asking, NOOO I'm not happy!!! Happy now?? :devilish:

I don't have anything to add to the excellent advice above. I suppose that means everyone agrees with me now :p
