"Diana Curtis" wrote in message ... The rules are changing tho. It was considered rude to top post back in the early days... for reasons I cant remember..but now the common sense rules say post at the top, post at the bottom, but please remember to trim the posts. In one group I know top posting is preferred since so many of the readers have stiff hands and cant scroll down easily. In other group top posters are mocked and humiliated. Diana Even if you do top-post, leave some space between your comments and the rest. When I get a dense block of text with includes the poster's message, and a bunch of gobbledy-gook in the header, both jammed together, its a pain. |

The rule is very simple: you top-post if, and only if, you quote the entire post.

They used to not go in, but with the kitchen remodel the only place we could find for the catbox was in the bathtub. Ours, being well trained to the outdoors, only get a litter box if they are ill and need to be confined to the house. We don't "do" outside cats, or ours would be the same. -- I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much. - Mother Teresa |

"Diana Curtis" wrote in message ... Yep, I try to remember but sometimes I rush and leave all that blue garbage sitting there. There should be a name for that ... tailors chalk? Hmmm... Oh, and signing ones posts is considered good manners too.. wink, wink, nudge, nudge. Diana :-) What part of "Duh Who" don't you understand? ;-) Due to past problems, I"m usually reluctant to reveal my real name on the web. You should feel honored I gave in a little bit. ;-) |
