Hi Dave,

Hope all is well with you.  If top posting was not the norm, I suspect
keeping up with this forum would be unmanageable.  For me, this would
introduce too many clicks, scrolls, searches and whatnots between the
subject and the response.  Coming from receiving Tech Net (and other IPC
posting) for just about 8 years, top posting has proven to be far
superior to other styles.

That said, let freedom reign.  Post in your style with relevant
information; and, as I learned once so smartingly from Brian, without
commercial bluntness.

Have a Great Weekend!!!,

Shean Dalton

Hi All,
I'm NOT complaining, just curious. Most news groups frown
on "Top Posting". A quick web search on the subject gave some
pretty firm advice on avoiding the practice. I notice that top posting
is the norm on this forum.
I could care less. I find the information and goodwill within this
group somewhere above excellent. I just remain curious if others
in this group have any strong feelings on the matter.
I felt safe to ask the question today - Friday always seems to be
a safe time to get some slack on this type of thing! Happy Friday.
Dave
