See, 20 years and no progress! Still complaining about top-posting.Fred
I've pretty much given up on proper e-mail. Everyone and their pet goldfish top posts now. (some people even complain, COMPLAIN; when you don't Top Post. :-( )
Back on thread topic: if us grand[p|m]as want to tell all the kids to get off our lawn, first we need to have a lawn.
Or, in other words, can we repurpose this list to something still useful? It _is_ kind of historical. For instance, it could be used as a sort of alt.wikipedia.recovery [1], perhaps.
