Consequently, since my comments address top, in-line, and bottom posting they are relevant. --- >Go back to the bottom where you are comfortable, more easily >ignored. --- Isn't comfort and lack of confusion in communications what we should all strive for? I've relocated your post so that it follows my earlier one in order that you might see how much more natural the flow is, chronologically, using bottom posting. Just think (if you can) how much easier someone coming across this post for the first time would find it to understand, reading it from the top down instead of having to jump about trying to stitch together seemingly unrelated pieces of quiltwork.

I must say I do like the way the browsers were designed to top post. I hate scrolling to the bottom and then reading backwards to find the top of their statements. Just look at a thread where epople haven't trimmed and the big inserted lexical levels are hard to pick out and the outside lexical levels are useless as nobody can count that many right carets to figure out who said it. The result? People read the previous posts to know who said what, confusion results in fights from people disagreeing with the wrong people and just general mass confusion of information, especially with the browsers meant to download binary files, mainly. Look at this beautiful format. This is the way every browser I have seen so far is designed to work. It is always a favourite troll post of the lazy trolls when losing an argument. "Your format is wrong" makes a good distraction from the real issue. Now read very closely in the attached reference posts I may have interlaced a comment, somewhere...LOL "Michael B" <baughfam(a)bellsouth.net> wrote in message news:61e9f5bc-7024-4deb-bdd5-2ac4c079d56b(a)k19g2000yqc.googlegroups.com... Your position, at the bottom, assumes that your responses will be something a reader actually seeks by scrolling past all your other trolldom utterances. I actually scrolled down to see if you had posted something relevant to the topic. But, no. I was disappointed, but not particularly surprised. Go back to the bottom where you are comfortable, more easily ignored.
