OK, so who remembers what the original issue was? And for that there is the Document Foundation lists Nabble archive--where you can take your pick of layout. Threaded http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Top-posting-tt3767551.html#none
List http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Top-posting-tc3767551.html or Nabble classic http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/Top-posting-td3767551.html#none Folks, we've come a long way from usenet list posting and terminal based readers--but threaded lists do continue to have a place in efficient exchange of information. More modern collaborative tools remove the infrastructure issues that bottom or in-line posting styles evloved to address. Review the above presentations for function, and decide for yourselves--style is less an issue that content. Not to say Tom doesn't have content issues occasionally--but don't we all. And for the curious Charles originally gigg'd Tom for going off topic bringing up Base and Writer and Calc, on a thread dealing with Power Point handling in LibreOffice vs. OpenOffice Impress, and flamed him over his top-posting style.

Almost never worth the effort. At best something to leave until later, with 'later' becoming never. Regards from Tom :) --- On Thu, 23/2/12, Werner F.
