Matthew. Great name BTW, my son's name is also Mathew. In any case I
totally agree with you regarding quoting. In general it is really better
to put the new text after the quoted text. This way you can read it as
if it was a conversation.
However, this is not the way we the moderators or the list owner will
ask people to change. It is an unfortunate things have become this way
largely because of laziness and because of MS email clients.
Lastly, I do not wish to get into a debate on list about this <smile>.
As I mentioned in my original message, I really don't care here on this
list whether it's top quoting or bottom quoting as long as just the
message being replied to is the one in the quote.

Most people have a furious itch to talk about themselves and are restrained
only by the disinclination of others to listen. Reserve is an artificial
quality that is developed in most of us as the result of innumerable rebuffs.
