I agree with Steve... 

I like to have the earlier message with the response. Sometimes several days
go by and if just the response is given, I may not know exactly what it's
answering if I can't re-read the first posting.

When someone answers a really old email, then I'm totally lost if the
original posting is not included.

Please let's keep doing this to help us older researchers....

Well I for one disagree.  I delete all read messages and if someone responds
to an inquiry, I may have forgotten what it was to begin with.  If I scroll
down I can read what the previous person said and the response.

I think using cluttering your mailbox is a poor excuse for an email that
barely takes up 1K of memory in the Tetra-bite world.  Just checking in with
my opinion.
