RE: General Trading Etiquette Rule #145

["Jeff Roy" <jeffroy@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I have to agree here...text file trade lists are extremely messy and 
just nonsense. I find myself spending so much time cleaning them up 
in order to just sort thru them properly...it's just much easier to 
get them via Word or Excel attachments. Scan your drive once a night 
to make sure your files are clean. 

I almost lose the appetite for the trade when I get some monster 
list, pages long, all crammed together in text format.

Sorry...just my view.

Chris,

That's just silly, man.  Text files generally look like shit when it
comes to long lists of data.  That's what spreadsheets are for.
