Kevin,
What is so childish about asking the question? wrote in message ups.com... Dr. Dr. Smithers wrote: Kevin, Why is JimH asking a question that is designed to encourage an on topic thread childish?

Doug,
I find it easier to read top posting messages, it makes it easier than scrolling down to the bottom. Also, my NG reader places the cursor at the top of the message. "Doug Kanter" wrote in message ...

Kevin,
I really do know, I just prefer to read messages on top, so I top post my messages. I find reading bottom posting a major pain in the ass, especially since 99% of the bottom posters do not trim any of the messages. wrote in message oups.com...

I'm not sure if you realize this, but it is possible to move the cursor. It really is! But you end up reading the replies to your posts at the bottom so I don't understand your point. Do as you want but it does make it easier to follow a thread when everyone posts in the same way. This NG bottom posts so you should do the same. As Kevin said, there is no big effort in moving the cursor to the bottom when replying. ;-) |

Doug, if you start reading at the top of the page, as you state English is read, then you'll read
his response (and this one) without wading through three feet of crap.
