Big deal. Get over it. I'm glad you have your opinion. The opinions of those who admin the list happen to coincide with mine, and we both disagree with you. You don't mind if we don't give out free support when you deliberately contravene the policy of the list, right? Then no problem - post however you like. I can't speak for others on this list, but I get hundreds or thousands of emails a day to wade through, and frankly top-posting to mailing lists and silly banners just makes me hit the delete key before even reading the email. Sorry if that upsets you, but it significantly improves the signal to noise ratio in my email experience. Take care, --=20 -------------------------------------------------------------------------- | Stephen Gran | I'm wet!
