I can't seem to get Outlook to do it, and I can't justify saving other people 
4000 seconds by spending 10000 of my own seconds adding a "> " and a carriage

enclose the quoted text with < and >, as I have done above.  Those whose email 
programs differentiate quoted text through a different text color, please also 
use < > because the color may not translate from program to program.
