Thanks very interesting idea but ...

Another interesting idea is to TRIM text from
earlier replies that is no longer immediately
relevant. Best to put replies wherever they
are most relevant, and quoting only a little of
earlier replies for context.

Please refrain from bottom-posting*.

* Which, BTW - is worse than top-posing in that
while it retains the entire bandwidth of the
earlier post(s), it forces the user to scroll
to the very bottom to see the pithy comment.

(And it adds little, if nothing, to the flow of
the thread.)

Thanks

Back at ya' (in anticipation).
