Thank you for making this point.   I kept reading the thread waiting
for someone to make it before I piped up to make it myself.   Bottom
posting is just as loathesome as top posting.  This community prefers
inline responses, the key being what several people have pointed out:
The quoted text is trimmed judiciously to include only enough of what
was previously said to provide adequate context, with responses in
line after the relevant quoted snippet..
