rude? whatever. maybe he should have included a "free registration may be required" disclaimer. maybe you should check out BugMeNot. http://www.bugmenot.com/ what's rude is top-posting. :) -d
good suggestions, and for those who use Firefox for web browsing, check out this extension for auto-use of BugMeNot: http://extensions.roachfiend.com/index.php#bugmenot Off-topic comment: what's rude is breaking the flow of a discussion (note I re-arranged your text so that the flow makes sense, eve if it doesn't meet your ideal). If someone top-posts, then you should follow up in-kind. Going back and forth from one to the other makes for a very difficult read. I personally prefer top-posting - when viewing emails from my Treo, for example, the text on top shows up first and does not require me to scroll down - and if I've already read the original, why would I want to re-read it when viewing the reply anyway? - Jeff On Jan 18, 2005, at 11:34 AM, David Vincent wrote:

Hank, I copied/pasted that URL from your e-mail, and it asked for a user/pass. When I searched Google, it gave me the same link, but when I clicked on it, it worked. Looks like NYT allow clickthrough from Google only. Andy On Wed, 19 Jan 2005, Hank Nussbacher wrote:
