A Plea for help & a head's up

Interesting etiquette. It's like walking upstream when done fishing and
spooking the sipping trout targets of the fisherman above you?

Thanks!

As long as you trim the posts you're replying to, it's okay with most
people. Be aware that it's basically a violation of custom and
manners. I happen to prefer top posting myself, but the 'Net has
trained me into this. Just figure it's one of those things that would
take too long to explain and it still wouldn't make much sense unless
you knew the very early history of the 'Net. Live with it, learn it,
you don't have to love it.

There's no need to quote 2 pages of stuff to agree with or refute one
line of it. You _must_ remember to trim your posts. Too many people
forget it (mostly top posters, btw).

The last paragraph wasn't just aimed at you. I'm hoping some of the
others will read it and take it to heart.

Only a fool would refuse to believe in luck. Only a damn fool would rely on it.
