Re: Parameter Object really necessary?

I agree, I hate scrolling down. In this case, I *think* that there may have
been some formatting issue b/c when I looked at the message, you could see
the whole thing, Original question and my answer, in one window.

I know that some people (in Comp.Os.Linux.Advocacy, it gets UGLY if you top
post and I mean UGLY) get really really mad about top posting though, when
to me, bottom posting is a lot more annoying. Bottom POsting advocates say
that in long conversations, top posting makes it impossible to read, but
IMHO, it's the exact opposite, WIth top posts, you always know where to look
and don't have to scroll down or exclude signatures or anything else.

Agreeing with you also has the side benefit of putting me in good company a
la "Great minds think alike" ;-)
