    You also don't have a clue what replying below is all about nor do you
    respond to anything regarding quotes. How many times haven't we seen
    stupid quotes like this :

    > blah blah long long line ..........................
    end of last line > here is the second line that's quoted
    end of second line......... > and here starts the third one.

    If you haven't - lucky you. But don't try to push your
    reply-above-and-don't-give-a-piss-about-others approach.

    This list replies below and uses manually wrapped lines.

    If you want to create your own linux kernel list with other
    rules - be free to do so, but if you want to continue talking
    on this one, follow the rules on it, don't try to push your own.
