One of my New Years resolutions is to start trimming the reply-to: line 
in my email messages. Everytime I hit reply-all and don't remove the 
extraneous addresses, I send out multiple messages to the same people. I 
don't expect *everyone* to share my resolution, but I thought I would 
pass it on in the hopes that a few of you do pick up this great habit ;-)
