With all due respect Tom, the problem is you and the tools you've chosen
to use for replying to newsgroups. Yahoo Mail just plain sucks and
doesn't properly do anything right for places like this.
I've not tried Gmail for something like newsgroups, but their
conversational message display might work a bit better.
And Larry is quite right, with Thunderbird, you have proper attributions
so figuring out who said what isn't all that hard. :-) And a helluva a
lot easier than figuring it out from a top posted message.
FYI, this is another of your messages I've had to reformat manually
because of your choice of tools. Getting tired of it. :-)
