Are you using a news reader which displays posts in threads?  When you're not it can be annoying to find a post with no quotation, I agree.

The web interface (which I am using until I have my own PC) seems to have trouble correctly threading all the posts too.  Opera didn't seem to have any trouble when I last used it.

I suspect either some of our newsreaders/posters do not correctly format the headers in replies and/or the web interface isn't looking for some headers which Opera did and/or there is some clever trick Opera was used to thread them correctly.

Anyway, enough rambling.  ;)
