If I notice that someone has started a bottom post, I will follow. But,<br>
if I am the first, I will top post.<br>
<br>
When I look at a new email, I don't like to scroll to the bottom to find<br>
out what is new.<br>
<br>
If you know of a mail reader which will automatically scroll to the top<br>
of the latest info, let me know. If there is a technological fix,<br>
perhaps these threads will die down.<br>
