If you want to maintain discussions it would be easier on everyone if you avoided top-posting.
Though it's odd to criticize top-posting in a message that's at least partially top-posted too; you start out with interleaved replies, but then have a big block of untrimmed quotage trailing off at the bottom.
There *has* been quite a burst of top-posting on this list lately.
Of course, the usual general custom on these lists favours bottom posting. The untrimmed portion essentially was stripped down to only my previous response which had been posted on the bottom of his previous top posting. Since my last comments followed immediately upon his own comments then it's obvious that itr was bottom posted. The additional quoted material should then be viewed as nothing more than a footnote.
