As has been stated, this has already gotten too involved, but one
thing--I know we all like to blame mail clients, but mutt, as well as
most other mail clients I've seen, puts the cursor at the top.  This is
how it should be, shouldn't it?  This way, I see the whole message from
the start and can decide what to trim and where to insert my replies. 

So, what mail client would avoid this tendency?  (Actually, you can
configure mutt to put the cursor at the bottom, but as stated above, I
think it makes more sense to have the cursor up top.

Miss Calendar: Okay, so this Master guy tried to open the
Hellmouth, but he got stuck in it.  And now, all the signs are reading
that he's going to get out, which opens the Hellmouth, which brings
the demons which ends the world.
Giles: Yes. That about sums it up, yes. 
Miss Calendar: The part that gets me, though, is where Buffy is the
Vampire Slayer. She's so little.
