Q: What is the most annoying thing on Usenet?

He apparently doesn't like it when people put their responses at the
top of a message, as I am doing here, rather than at the bottom, the
answer in front of the question.

Personally, I think it makes a lot more sense to do it this way. If
someone has been following the thread, he will know what has gone
before, and can scroll down to refresh his memory if necessary.

Whatever. Either use the clips or not, it's hardly an issue.

I don't, in traffic. I find them to be an additional task load
that I don't need.
