People (I won't embarass Bob, Iorwerth, Dan'l, or Matthew by mentioning 
their names),
Please lay off the top-posting; it makes your posts very hard to follow. 
Even if your mail program puts your cursor at the top of the quoted 
material to which you are replying, there is nothing to stop you from 
moving to the bottom before beginning to type in your received wisdom, 
and following the conventional flow of reading down columns of English 
eases the reader's eye.

Thanks,
Jeff
