Thank you but you misunderstand and this is why you have been top
posting for so long. I don't slog through anything. True, I am
just below average intelligence but three things: I did a speed
reading course once. Two, one can see from a sentence or two
(especially if one wrote it oneself) what was said (something,
btw, you can assist in by trimming). Three, I can see immediately
what you are replying to without having to scroll down and then
back up. As an engineer (no matter Electrical, there are smallest
circuit paths) you will understand smallest paths: to scroll down
and see what it is you are replying to in order to better
understand what you are saying, I scroll. I then scroll back to
read you and find myself at the part I read before. I am going
fowrard, back and forward again. The pint of thgis pleasant rave
(I always like to start the day with one) is this: you are doing
something more than being gracious - yes, this is recognised and
appreciated - but doing something right and proper and true and
at one with the deep heart of the universe (Hi SP! I'm off again!)

If you do this one simple thing, you will see it happen: Put the
list first in the HTML. I am sure old Jonathan said things about
the importance of order in these matters in some thread or other
yesterday... Anyway, here is a case of its importance.
