It's not so much that your contribution is on top that bothers me as the lack of editing you apply to the content you "quote". In your last message, not only did you include all of Alan's message, but all of his quote of your message. Did you really think about that? Some newsgroups collect statistics and rate participants by various criteria, such as number of posts, volume of posts, and -- one you may appreciate -- OCR, or Original Content Rating. The more one quotes, the lower the OCR. Top-posters tend toward much lower OCRs because they so rarely edit any of what they're "quoting". -- Steven E.
