NO amount of badgering is gonna stop people from top posting. If you don't like it - delete it - move on If you find it awkward to reply to a reply which was top posted, move it to the bottom, reply on the top, reply on the bottom or just delete it and move on. Alexander doesn't need you to defend him - he's quite capable. None of us really wishes to endure this unending and unsolvable problem, you aren't gonna stop people from top posting replies and if one or two requests don't get the person to change their habit, it's not desirable to beat them up for it - the badgering is far worse than the transgression of top posting. I don't top post. I do move top posted replies to the bottom before I put in my reply. I don't see the point of all of this wasted angst, energy, hostility over the subject. If I can annoy you or anyone else by top posting, I am tempted to do that - yes, to needle/aggravate as your advocacy for bottom posting is entirely over the top. Craig
