Open a second window to copy the quoted stuff from into your post.

A new quote implies a new topic of conversation (or a variation on the current topic).
Like:

1) open a "Post A Reply Window" with the quote.
2) copy it (control-C)
3) Open a second "Post a Reply Window" with another quote.
4) Paste the copy of the first window into the second with control-V

EDIT: But both responses do add something so that can be a variation of the topic.

Anyways, I have done my good deed for the day. Edited a post instead of posting a new one.

RE-EDIT: Like if I hadn't used the "edit button", I would have posted 2 in a row!

RE-RE-EDIT If the two quotes, were put in the same posting you may mistakenly assume they deal with the same topic. But they do not!

So, doing a separate posting, puts the reader "on notice" that different sub-topics within the main topic of the thread are being referred to.

RE-RE-RE-EDIT of the forgoing paragraph.
