Ok, this is my last post on this subject.

However, the above post by Don is an example of arrogance that seems to make 
the assumption that only bottom or inline posters make intelligent comments.   
In fact, this post creates a strawman argument which belies that assumption.  
Even bottom posters don't use their brains.  They just type and send.    I 
probably am guilty of that as well.
