Crappy excerpting is the bane of this website. Heres a real excerpt:Yes, it is. Part of it is due to the auto excerpt. It only grabs the first couple of lines. It's also due to poster not taking the time or posting excerpts that will get their thread hits. I don't know what they think that gets them.

Part of it is due to the auto excerpt. It only grabs the first couple of lines. It's also due to poster not taking the time I had to stop for a minute to try and remember what 'auto excerpt' is. I've never used it when posting articles. I just copy and paste from the source.
I also try to post the most relevant text from the article, which isn't always in the first paragraph.
