And excellent example of circular logic / > illogic. 1) I assume you knew it was a joke. 2) Was it really necessary to post your reply at both extremes of the post; ie, top and bottom or where you just trying to appease both "top posters" and "bottom posters"? I actually did that a few times myself. The problem was that "Top Posters" never read to the bottom and therefore were not aware of the ploy. Upon further investigation, I determined that the majority of "top posters' were so dazed and confused that it just served no point. -- Jerry ✌ jerry+fbsd@seibercom.net Disclaimer: off-list followups get on-list replies or ignored.
