Please, I beg you Ed... don't go there! You don't want to go
there. I have made a study of the killfiles at alt.html and they
are not like the ordinary simple minded ones in other groups.
Some of them have different level chambers and awful things go on
there. The killfiles at alt.html are not passive ones. They are
highly active and dangerous places to be.
Swallow your pride and don't top post, multi post is very
logical: the bit that you are responding to first (that you have
edited to bare essentials to cut down all the huge traffic), your
response. The next bit you are responding to, your response and
so on down the page. As a general rule, this makes a lot of
sence, no? Easy for readers to read and get the drift.
