Actually, I've learned something from this discussion on hijacked threads, which is after all the reason for subscribing is it not ?? Having never used threads, I never noticed the hijacking, but now I know why my mail client seems to have trouble sorting by date from time to time. As to top posting, I guess it's like the "great taste / less filling" debate, it will never be settled. But I can see where it can be annoying when the answer appears before the question, especially when the discussion gets several layers deep. Consistency would help, but then your asking half the population to go against their grain. ("half" is not a statistic and should not be contrued as such) Anyway;;;;; Joebewan -- Shrike-list mailing list Shrike-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/shrike-list
