[complete quote of previous post cut]
It appears to me todays computer keyboards can no longer be used to
edit quotes. Everyone seems to just top-post. Back when 33K modems
were top of the line some people would get quite ****ed over that..
;^) But then again it's still better then people quoting 4 pages of
previous posts only to add 1 line at the bottom.. }

I still do because why waste all that bandwidth for leaving the quoted
post below your comments.

wIth my screenreader I have to shut it up to not read me all that
header info that I don't care about, then naturally it leaves my
reading cursor at the bottom of the screen, so now I"ve got to wander
up a line at a time looking for the meat of the post. THen it's some
bonehead who left 150 lines of quoted material under his one liner
reply.

GUess with all that fancy gui **** they don't supply a good user
friendly editor for email messages. Back in the fidonet days when
9600 baud was king and I ran a bbs all sorts of good offline readers
where you pick your text editor of choice were the norm.

Just a grouchy old man. Has not been a fun weekend so far grrrr
guess I'll retire to a shot of JD and a pipe for the rest of the day.
