The list owner's choice did not make bottom posting right, logical and common sense. It was all of those things already. The list owner just made the right choice. > How about we don't belittle people who don't notice? (I don't think I belittled anyone for top-posting.)

Simple courtesy would be to only include relevant sections of previous posts and to reply below the quoted text. If you don't like the rules of the playground, find another playground. -- Thanks in advance, ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Steve Edwards sedwa...@sedwards.com Voice: +1-760-468-3867 PST Newline Fax: +1-760-731-3000 -- _____________________________________________________________________ -- Bandwidth and Colocation Provided by http://www.api-digital.com -- asterisk-users mailing list To UNSUBSCRIBE or update options visit: http://lists.digium.com/mailman/listinfo/asterisk-users
