Just thought I'd add my 2cents worth (inline of course, well bottom as I've cut everything else off). I think there is a rare reason to top post, and usually not in this type of venue.. Sometimes you may have a thought that is slightly related but doesn't fit totally with the thread (perhaps you've skewed off into lala land a bit) but still somewhat tenously related. I have in the past top posted, as well as inline when I couldn't find an appropriate place to put the comment. But I only ever do that when on limited lists or personal correspondence.. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
