1. As I already said, I don't usually make a fuss. 2. Part of being on a list which is dedicated to conversation is mindfulness. That, and keeping the focus on the actual conversation. I'm not anal about it, but I do feel this is an important point. 3. It's far from clear to me that Radhika was serious about top-posting fear being the reason for her infrequent posting. The "no top posting" rule is already sufficiently relaxed, in my opinion. Udhay -- ((Udhay Shankar N)) ((udhay @ pobox.com)) ((www.digeratus.com))
