You'd see that with bottom-posted replies, too, if all bottom posters *also* trimmed the quote down to the bits they're actually replying to. This unfortunately isn't always the case, quotations often include everything plus signature and list footer. Having to scroll three pages down to read the reply is just as annoying as having the thread jumbled up by top posters. > I bottom post here because it is the requested etiquette of the list admi= ns. They etiquette should also state, just as clearly, that quotations *must* be trimmed.
