Elton ;-) A: <enter flame, long, illogical tirade here> Q: Well, why do you *insist* on top posting in newsgroups? What happens if, sometime in the future you decide to to a google search for your past postings, or find something that you had posted a few years ago? A: Of course NOT. That's stupid. I wouldn't understand a thing! That's not how written thoughts are processed. Q: When you read a book, magazine, or other text, do you usually read the page from the bottom up? A: Because I feel like it, because I can't set my mailer to follow accepted "netiqutte". Actually, because I'm just plain stubborn, and arrogant. Q: Then why do you top post? A: Well, pople ought to know what I'm talking about ... even those who are just joining the newsgroup, or who are searching the 'net for answers. Q: Why can't you be bothered to enter an appropriate sujetct line instead of "no subject" or "bla, bla-list archives"? A: Of course, not! ... I am not a mind-reader. Q: Do you always answer a question before it is even asked? A: I doubt it, but .... Q: [to myself] Maybe this will make people understand that it's not just annoying, but totally illogical and discourteous not to follow "netiquette" guidelines?
