You do not speak for all the other readers of the list. I, for one,
appreciate his help, as may others. If YOU are upset, it is trivial to
block ALL his emails and thus not be upset. That way, you are happy,
as are other members - a win-win situation.

I also have mentioned the desirability of not top posting, many times
- but I value good, useful info MUCH more than the minor irritation of
a top post. If he's a busy guy, with perhaps inconvenient hdw, cut him
some slack. Let's not drive away helpful people...
