I cannot agree more with this, Monique, but you and I (and others) both know that such suggestions will just go un-heeded, and people will _still_ continue to top-post. I personally delete all top-posted e-mails and refuse to answer them. > quotes, you allow readers to more easily follow the conversation, and > this gives you a better chance of getting your questions answered.

To be able to see the flow of conversation, rather than seeing a paragraph at the top of an e-maikl, out of context is far more preferrable. To which, I urge anyone who thinks of top-posting to read the following that was taken from the LUG I am a member of: http://www.hantslug.org.uk/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MailingList/TopPosting -- Thomas Adam ===== "The Linux Weekend Mechanic" -- http://linuxgazette.net "TAG Editor" -- http://linuxgazette.net "<shrug> We'll just save up your sins, Thomas, and punish you for all of them at once when you get better.
