Quote the person you are replying to with italics (if you are replying to someone specifically and what they said).

That has always been SOP for my responses to other posts. It makes things very readable.

Just a quick comment on your post..

I agree that italics are easiest to read. Personally, I like to also use the indentation (DIR and /DIR in HTML) to separate my words from the correspondents, excerpts, etc.

I lurked for a little while before posting and not only was this the perceived norm, it was also the easiest way of moving through a thread.

It's better than having to backtrack to see what someone said.
