BTW, two lines of *top* quoting, that is bad too, because 
replies/answers are written *after* questions, and because text in 
English (and so many other languages) is written and read from top to 
bottom, not the contrary.
Top quoting is bad also because is rather "error-prone" just in terms of 
new vs. quoted lines.
