Do you really make THAT many references to events in literature?  This is
the first time, in the months that I've been on the list, that I've seen a
citation of plot w/o space.  Besides, I don't care so much about the
actual 20 lines of blank space as I do of just mentioning in ONE LINE at
the beginning of the post that there are possible spoilers for some book,
which doesn't seem too _unreasonable_ to me. 
Not everyone is obviously as advanced in literature and history as you.
