Or click the "quote button" on the bottom left. There's a "multiquote" button, too.

And please - EVERYONE - you do not have to quote an entire 3,000 word post to say "Yes, that is exactly what I thought." You can delete the extraneous parts OUT and just leave what you are referring to.

I only quote the part that I am responding to.

Just my two cents!

That's why I was pointing out the quote button, I assumed(which I guess I should not be doing) that the OP would do the quote button and delete what wasn't needed That's just the way I do it- and it shows the "Quote" codes when you do that, too so you can put them wherever you want.
