hmmm... if you'd bothered to check the whole thing, you'd know it was
not solely a cross-post... what do you call it when you post a reply
following someone's comment, inline with the rest of the post? Some
people call it follow-posting, others call it inline-posting... I think
inline best describes it.

Yes, the first few lines of my commentary were topposted, but had you read
it, you'd understand why I did it that way (if indeed you were able to).

If you care, the bottom, oh, 45% or so of that post was nothing but my
comments. If you strip away all the blank lines between the previous
posters' comments, it would be closer to 65% or maybe even 70%.

So, I'm not sure the term "topposting" quite applies here.

Besides, even if it does apply, it's a very rare thing for me to do so,
and honestly, considering the majority of MSOE users toppost anyway, as do
a good number of Mozilla and even some Linux-native posters (until they're
taught otherwise). So, certainly my one little "toppost" couldn't have
been so noticeable as to draw your scrutiny to it. Perhaps there was
something else in my post that you found offensive or intimidating and
this was the only way you could think of to "strike back" as it were, and
that terminology would require that my post have been intended as some
sort of "strike", which it was not. Therefore, if it has offended or
intimidated you, please accept my most sincere apology for same, and then
grow up or add me to your killfile.

In fact, just add me to your killfile anyway. You'll live a longer life
by not being so offended or intimidated all the time. Or, just tell me
which group you frequent the most between c.o.l.a. and a.o.wxp, and I'll
try to keep your group out of my headers.

But whichever you decide, don't try insulting me with idiotic one-liners.
(1) They don't insult me, and (2) they make you look stupid.
