Top posting is exactly what you have just done ... post your comment ABOVE which makes it hard to follow the flow of the article.
Please don't go on about putting the most recent information first.
Which is disrespectful of your audience since the method of posting here *is* defined.
Those who have read previous emails have no problem following the flow and seeing it repeated ad infinitum/ad nauseum, is just mind numbing.
Bottom posting w/o trimming the quoted mat'l is just as bad as top posting and not trimming! And just as disrespectful.
Besides...you are forcing people with disabilities to work harder -- think of blind people having to read through scads of repeated text until they get to the new content.
Not if the message is presented/formatted as our forum has described.
Learn the essentials of writing. The important stuff goes first. Email is not a journal nor a "story", it's a discussion, where I put my answer first, and you put yours first in response. I don't need to reread what I just wrote to you, nor what I just read in the previous email.
Your reasoning is faulty and many will ignore your posts.
