[nfb-db] cleaning up posts

Good morning, y'all! 
I wanted to mention something which may help people when sharing information.  
If you are going to forward a message, you will have far better results if you select the text of the post you'd like to forward, copy it to your clip board and paste it into a new message.  
This is a better way for 2 reasons— first is that if you are trying to reach busy people, you will have by far better chance of them actually reading your post if they do not have to go through miles and miles of headings for the twenty-five other people who also forwarded the message.  This is especially true for DB people using braille or very large text, where it is hard to skim.  
Secondly, if you forward messages, you are sharing the address of the person who sent you the message, and all the other people who have received or sent it before you got it.  This is how spam companies harvest addresses. 
If anyone has any questions about what I've said, or you want to tell me I'm full of bunk, and should stay in my corner, or if you'd like me to help you learn how to cut, copy or paste contents of an email, just let me know! 
Thanks, y'all and have a great Tuesday!
