Re: [PLUG] I don't get it. What's the big deal with putting the response on top?

I agree with you that failing to trim quotes properly is very annoying,
perhaps just as annoying as top-quoting.  However, as I know you're no
newbie when it comes to mailing lists and news groups, and as I'm sure
you've come across this endless debate in other forums, I'm curious as
to why you chose to raise the subject on this list and would strongly
encourage both you and others to move the discussion elsewhere.

Thanks,
