Gary,
There are lots of people who care about top posting, me included.  If 
to you as you say it is really no big deal, then it would be pretty 
simple for you to put your post at the end where it belongs.  Many 
of the folks from whom you might want help are reading this in pine 
or some other text based email program.  Furthermore, if you post 
using Yahoo instead of "reply" on your email editor, you will find 
that Yahoo does put you after the original automatically.  Please 
be considerate of others and follow a simple, common set of rules.

Thanks,
Loyal
