Heck, I didn't know any better - every email I've ever seen has the old
email on bottom. I guess I missed that net-etiquette class at the Uni. I
always start at the top and when I reply to several things, I reply below
each point - I guess I use the "over & under" or compound method. :-) I
think most people on the list are like me, they're fairly new to newsgroups,
mailing lists, etc. (I'm so green I don't know the difference between all
the different kinds of groups). So I think it's going to happen for some
time (but I for one will try to do better...). It does seem like mining for
gold, but at least you can't get slabbed (but I would think having to spend
time below the old message would increase the risk...) Keep your eye on the
back Pard and be sure to bar down (edit well) before replying...
