So there are groups that prefer top-posting? I wonder if this really
exists. I admit: I got a bit pissed by reading the thread because I
wasn't able to follow it properly as the top-posting made it impossible
to determine who wrote what in response to whoms text.

Indeed. It was a demand. It's a bit like 'Do not cross!' when you come
to a red traffic light.

I love you, and I love the group, and we all love each other, but don't
top post! And always submit a URL! And don't expect this to be a
help-desk! :-)
