There would be what? For goodness sake, please quote enough of the text
to which you are replying so as to make your post meaningful to others.
You claimed earlier that Google groups would not allow you to do that,
but other users seem to manage. It's not that difficult just to copy
and paste the relevant paragraph. You should not assume that others
will read the post you are replying to immediately before yours.
