*My* top-posting? Which message was that? I think you are confusing me with
someone else.

I defended the practice of top posting certainly, but did I actually
top-post in the newsgroup? I doubt it. Having spent much of my life
bottom-posting, interleaving and snipping, I still routinely do it in
newsgroups (just as I do here), but feel free to check for yourself.

As I think I clearly said, I top-post in email.

Several people have taken you to task for your comments. Are you sure
you really want to continue this?
