Would you have not read the message first and then replied to the e-mail as
I have just done??? For the record I like my blink at the top of my reply.

There are many reasons to put the message you're responding to first, such as
* It encourages the recipient to *read* the original message before
reading the reply. (Not that this usually works!)
* It encourages the sender to reduce the message they're replying to
down to the relevant bits. Thus saving bandwidth and brevity.
Silly mail clients like Netscrape and Exchange used to put the
original message last. This lead to e-mail discussions with 28 pages
of trailing text recording the entire conversation and all its
replies. Which was a waste of time, storage and bandwidth.
Have fun,
