Hi John, ------ (optional but welcome)
Outlook defaults to top posting. This assumes I am current with the thread and only want the most recent post. If not, I have to read bottom to top. Very unnatural.
Bottom posting seems a more natural read. How do I bottom post with the greatest ease?
I like interline/interleaved posts, when only two people are posting. Add a top post to an interline post, then add a bottom post, I'm getting dizzy.
Snipping is great medicine for long winded posts. Works well with interline posts.

Mark Twain sent his latest manuscript to his publisher with a 10 page synopsis. The last line read: I'm sorry for the long winded description, I did not have time to write a short one.
The most thought in the fewest words is sublime.

Sorry, I can't assume to know the consensus, I can only do my best to
support my own opinions when asked for them. I'm not at a boil, I am
just telling how the alternatives look from my vantage point. As far
as I am concerned, you are responsible for your own decisions and the
consequences of those decisions, as I am for mine.
What do you think of the arguments offered, so far?
