A. Because it makes things easier to read Q. Why should people bottom post? Kirrus said the following on 20/01/08 22:43: Wandering off at a tangent? We never _ever_ do that! ;) /me thinks about breaking open a chocolate orange... Ah, tap and unwrap. I can taste it now :-) but the instructions now say strike not tap Its more like smash on a hard surface, with great relish. At least, thats how I break mine... Kirrus ps Ian, can you try to not top post please? (Pretty please, with pink sugar icing on top?) pps I apologise if this post contains more elaborate wording than I normally use.

Re: [ubuntu-uk] Chocolate Oranges WAS: By way of introduction
Thanks for the welcome guys! (This message probably isn't going to help in the whole top/bottom post thing at all.)

I'm sure I will be participating as fully as I can. Especially the tangents, I love a good tangent me. Can be messy to peal sometimes tho. Kirrus wrote: Another web dev! There is a couple of others around here somewhere :) What languages do you work in, if you don't mind me asking? The usual suspects, I suppose. CSS, (X)HTML, PHP/MySQL and a bit of Javascript. Although Javascript is not really one of my strong points. I seem to have got a reputation at my current employers for producing good CSS-based, accessible and structured layouts. Well, that, and a fair amount of moaning at the designer lol! Kris Douglas wrote: I frickin' love chocolate oranges! Additionally. OMG FLAME WAR!!! TOP POST WAR! All hail Chocolate Oranges!! On a side note, it might just be me, but I dont think Chocolate Oranges will mix to well with a Flame War. So I would like to suggest a brief ceasefire, so that all innocent Chocolate Oranges may be moved a safe distance away from the arena. Especially as melted Chocolate Orange in the arena, potentially causes a clear and present danger to any non-combatant chocoholics in the vicinity. -- Question, Confront, Deviate, Destroy ...
