Not really - what you are seeing is something like a sig, but placed at the 
top of the email instead of the bottom.

Certainly in the four emails Duane posted this morning, he has responded to 
the questions further down in his reply, although I can understand your 
confusion on seeing the advert at the top and thinking perhaps that's all 
there was.

In my opinion top posting is bad enough, but mixing top posting and bottom 
posting in the same email is apalling.
