. Bottom posting only makes sense if the "top" has been
trimmed to a few lines - but the serious bottom post advocates usually

include hundreds of
lines of trash - they have the worst of both worlds. Frankly, I think

they have their
heads up their bottom post!


I agree.

He did trim it to a few lines.

Is this "middle posting?"

If you're obsessed about threading, context and continuity, but don't actually care if
anyone reads your post, you should bottom post.

OK, so I downloaded the quote crap thing and now I have all that stuff going into the ng like re-runs wasting bandwidth and all....Hope you're all happy....I really preferred my old cut and paste routine...I', not gonna stop top posting, however...you're just going to have to live with that....



Katy, try downloading something like Agent from Forte or Xnews
(free)

With either of them, you can highlight what you are replying to in
the original post, hit reply, and it will only quote what you had
highlighted. Agent is pretty good, but doesn't have multiserver
support, Xnews is also good and does have multiserver support.
