Thank you for defining Gentoo's preferred email style.  I would like to
point out, however, that different projects and organizations have
different preferences.  In the past I have been severely chastised and
called a moron because I followed a different style, and the style they
wanted me to follow was severely objected to by someone else.  The message
I took away a long time ago was do your best to conform to the styles of
the groups you are working with, and this will likely be different from
group to group.

Thank you once again Dr. Berkholz for your instruction.

  Best regards,

  EBo --
