No not a refusal. It was just never clear what top posting was. I
think it is because I use Gmail. I can read the post above the reply
area and then write from that. I for one will start writing under
things now that that is finally clear.
All those of you who complain about top posting need to do as Gene did
and clearly explain what the heck you are talking about. I am sure
most of us top posters are just new to the whole thing and not out to
make your lives a living hell. ;-)
Thanks
