top posting (was Audio/Video Problems)

[theuteck at gmail.com]

Sorry to see you go Leslie, and over such a trivial and childish reason at 
that.   
Someday people on the kubuntu mail list will realize that Kmail has no problem 
displaying the relevant part of new posts irregardless of top or bottom post, 
and I find that top posting a more natural and intuitive way to do things since 
the new response show up in in the message preview. 

Frown all you want, I don't care.

Now that I understand the rules you are operating under I can see this group 
is not for me. I'm just a 73 year old grannie trying to keep mentally active 
after a career in teaching Computer Tech. Reformatting this message to conform 
to your formal standards takes an amazing amount of time and effort and I'm not 
interested in doing it. 
For your information: I've belonged to many online groups for 15 years, 
including several Tech groups, though mostly general interest types. I've 
moderated about five over the years and owned three more. I've had almost no 
complaints. I do this for fun, as Linus Torvalds says, its "Just for fun", and 
pleasure. It seems this group is way too serious for me. 
Please don't reply to this. Get on with the purpose of the group. I don't want 
to interrupt the flow of the useful discussion here so I won't post again.
Best wishes,
Leslie Anne Chatterton B.Sc., B.D.
