So THAT'S the reason? Hmm?  Personally I usually go right past a post
that has the answer on the bottom because  nine times out of ten, ok, 8
times out of ten, you wade through 300 lines of quoted stuff from
multiple messages and when you FINALLY get to the comment waaaaayyyyy on
the bottom, it's usually something you can't use. <shrug> Or worse like,
"no problem" or You're welcome, and so forth. At least with the post on
top, I can immediately see if it's something I want to read or
investigate further. 

I try to be conscience about snipping and the such. As far as the
threading is concerned, I totally agree with that one. Granted not all
clients don't have a "thread" mode, the one I'm using does, and it comes
in very handy. 

Just my two cents! :-)

For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught
To say the things he truly feels and not the words of one who kneels
