I just want to sincerely thank you for your custom of replying as a top
post.
It is of course politically correct to bottom post but personally, I
just hate scrolling through reams of what someone has previously said,
just to see the latest response, so when a thread gets bigger than one
screen, I can't be bothered (and haven't the time) to scroll down it.
In contrast, your custom enables me to instantly see the state of play.
Save heaps of time, so thank you!
Oh Dear!...
While I also thank Suzanne for her genius with Word, and helping all us
lesser mortals with our Word difficulties... Thank you Suzanne.
The rest is a sad reflection of what happened to the net in the late 90s
and on. (There was a phrase for it).
I guess you also drive on any side of the road you fancy, despite what
was/is considered the norm... just because you want to.
I guess you drop litter everywhere, just because you want to, despite it
being considered anti-social...
Expectorate etc, etc...
This appalling state of affairs reached a new height recently when I
logged in to my bank account to find the (Self abusers) had decided the
statement items were to be presented in reverse order. (Last transaction
at the top, oldest at the bottom. I with many others protested, and a
while later, a mysterious button appeared allowing us to reverse the order
back to the expected normal.
Now if we lived in another part of the world where they read/wrote bottom
to top, right to left or even in a damn circle... Well maybe that's an
excuse, but as probably 95 percent of the folks I read/write use the
traditional Western method, upside down is not acceptable.
In some net places I inhabit, the top posting crime can get you firstly,
severely chastised, and then possibly thrown out by a moderator.
