Yeah, sorry. This is the only mailinglist I belong to where folk still obsess about it.
It's been interesting, over the years, to watch the top-post fetish move from cutting
edge to atavistic (and that's not a criticism -- atavism isn't all bad). I do try
to remember, but sometimes fail.
Most other lists to which I belong have given in to modern mailing conventions, which
largely have fallen to the dictates of Outlook (and even alpine) defaults.
