As already mentioned, we have a diverse group with
multiple opinions.  All can have validity.  What I
would really like to do is end this thread though.
Unless it's just really, really a big pain, I'd
get used to handling top posts, bottom posts and
mid posts.  Is it really that bad to try accept
the differing styles??

...just to irritate everyone, I have also bottom
posted this ...
