Reply to questions before you have had them asked ?

So, how do you have your conversations ?


That might be OK for Mystic Meg, but not for mortals like me.

The reason that many people 'top post' is because :

a) the idiots a microsoft who wrote MS Outlook put the cursor there when you hit 'reply'.
b) most people have not been trained to use email effectively.

That is what is 'ludicrous'.
