That's why we say, "Trim and bottom post." Bottom posting in and of itself is not sufficient if you have to slog through everything everyone has said on the subject. That is why we trim. Then you can collect the necessary context on the way to the reply at the bottom. -- Alex Esplin /* PLUG: http://plug.org, #utah on irc.freenode.net Unsubscribe: http://plug.org/mailman/options/plug Don't fear the penguin. */
