OK, so who remembers what the original issue was? And for that there is the Document Foundation
lists Nabble archive--where you can take your pick of layout.

Folks, we've come a long way from usenet list posting and terminal based readers--but threaded
lists do continue to have a place in efficient exchange of information. More modern collaborative
tools remove the infrastructure issues that bottom or in-line posting styles evloved to address.
Review the above presentations for function, and decide for yourselves--style is less an issue that
content.
Not to say Tom doesn't have content issues occasionally--but don't we all. And for the curious
Charles originally gigg'd Tom for going off topic bringing up Base and Writer and Calc, on a thread
dealing with Power Point handling in LibreOffice vs. OpenOffice Impress, and flamed him over his
top-posting style.

Hi :)
With that trimming you will never know the answer to the question because it is out of context and
forces anyone trying to answer to dig up the email where it first appeared. Almost never worth the
effort. At best something to leave until later, with 'later' becoming never.
Regards from
Tom :)
