All,

Yes, I'm a top poster. Simply because I use gmail, and I don't want to
click & scroll to the bottom of the message every time I respond to a
message. But yes, I read everything in this thread, as it shows as
bottom posting in my compose window.

Sorry for the inconvenience...

Met vriendelijke groeten, Salutations distinguées, Kind Regards,

          one requires re-reading the post, before getting to the new
bit;
             one allows the new bit to be read - if one needs refreshing
on what's gone before, then merely scroll down.

      Why do some folks want to complicate things which are really quite
simple;
          oh, windows could be rolled up & down in a car whenever;
              then electric windows made it impossible to do so unless
the
engine was running  ;-)

-2 (or however many)

many (all?) of us read several posts so you end up with a bunch of nearly
meaningless opening lines; why read further? with bottom-posting, you see
right away what the issue was, which motivates further reading.

I know this is a perennial disagreement; perhaps top-posters might at least
consider pruning the thread so it's easier to know what they are talking
about.
