| Yes, but i'll try top posting here to see how it works.

And I shall respond in that spirit.

| Do most of you bottom post to emails aswell?
|
| Agreed, not in the scale of things

Yes, of course.

| Not snipping the irrelevant is as bigger "crime" as top posting

I almost always do that.

| scrolling through old and read text just to read "I agreee" or "I disagree".

| Bloody foreigners? Middle class Brits???? Yes a pleasant pastime for
| all, whatever class or nationality.
|
| For the guy who doesn't read top postings (was some bloody foreigner I
| think - even worse than a middle class brit) then you are definitely up
| yourself... this is UK gardening... a pleasant passtime?!
|
| | Yes - copiously.

| Why do poeple like the answer before the question? :-)

You see now, I assume.
