This is top posting, but you don't need to worry about it yet.  First, you
need to learn how to post in plain text and how to properly quote a message.
 
Sorry to continue in HTML format, but switching to plain text really screwed
this one up.
 
BTW, as for the top-vs-bottom argument, I have friends who are tops, and
friends who are bottoms.  Every one of them seem to get extreme satisfaction
from their relationships with the other.

So, that's how my tax dollars are spent?  Outrageous, and certainly

news-worthy.  Good luck fighting off CNN and the like when this leaks

out.

      

Not at all, this is one of my favorite policies that has come from the

performance improvement department.  Yes that is right, it is official

policy at my location to not deal with people who top-post.  PI

decided that with people moved around between positions it is always

best for bottom-posting just as if on a mailing list even in two party

communications as, if another person comes into the discussion, it is

much quicker, and thus cheaper, to have a properly formatted

communication to come up to speed.  This is the same as the policy

that businesses that send ill-formatted bussiness letters will not

receive addition business when there is another suplier capable of

delivering the product/service.



Top-posting is even grounds for being written up if you later need to

forward a copy of a message on to another department or person.
