i agree JO. I preffer top posts, saves scrolling and re-reading.

The top posting thing comes from way back in the day, when hard drives
were (more) expensive and drive space was at a premium.
It's all down to NNTP server retention, because posts couldn't be held
on the server for too long and people (mainly) had to dial up (at normal
phone call rates) various posts would go missing from the server and so,
it was possible to see answers but no question, or on text based
terminals, you could read the answer but have to go down so many lines
to finally read the answer, by this time you would have forgotten what
the answer was !
Thus it was (is) netiquette to bottom post.
However !!, whilst in some groups you will be (virtually) shot dead for
top posting (ie in the comp. hierarchy) in most groups you can get away
with it.
Thus is anyone came into this group complaining about top posting and it
being against netiquette, we could shoot them down complaing about their
lack of netiquette for not lurking on the group to get the feel for it
in the first place. Also I could get shot down for posting off topic but
then again I could comaplain that my original post was on topic and we
just went off on a tangent ...
etc etc

SO there we are, one explanation that goes on and on :-)

Cheers

By the way I think I'll go for the Mini Spares door bottom repair
panels, especially if I can find one for the off side door aswell !
