Janet,

Yes, I think Wade is simply asking each member if they would consider 
deleting past discussion not relevant to his/her own current reply where 
that past discussion material is automatically inserted in the body of a 
reply.  Such a step, when taken, prevents the next reader from having to 
scroll through a long email.

This is obviously not a requirement to befuddle oneself over, but is 
desireable in terms of general email etiquette.  See below as a clean 
example.
