I would _greatly_ appreciate if those who submit messages to MEDLIB-L would
repeat their subject lines (even in an abbreviated form) in the body of their
message.
 
The system through which I receive this list adds alot of addressing garbage to
list messages, so the subject line of a message ends up being at least a
screen behind the text of the message.  And the system is sufficiently
uncooperative to make it difficult to back up and take a look at what's on the
previous screen.
 
So when I see a message that says, "Has anyone heard of this?", I have to go
through some fancy convolutions to find out what "this" is.
 
I also feel that it would add clarity to messages quoted in reply to a message
if the subject of the message were in the body of the message.
 
Thanks :-)
