Yes!
(I had to jump this)
And realy yes, MS gave eMail a bad name, especialy with
their stupid way of quoteing. I mean, can this be called
quoteing at all? Adding the whole mail and just puting
the cursor at the beginning? I get often mails at work
that are the result of 10 or more such actions ...
Maybe the guy who invented the shit was a huge fan of
HP calculators ... reading previous mails in reverse order.
Of course always includeing all headers and footers.
And of course no way to act context orientated (aka
embedding responses together.
Serious, I hate it.

YES! You could have tone the same with gosub and stack modification.
In Applesoft Basic, this would even be supportet by the language.
The POP command just removes one entry from the GOSUB stack :)
