Poor example, because in your entire message you did not refer to any specific excerpt of the previous message. The fun starts when context must be maintained by referring to specific pieces in a message. Try to do the same with a top-posting, and the result will be a screen full of confusing text. Many helpful community supports don't have the time to make sense of that. --
