And we've done that, so let's drop this thread now.

The problem occurs because some people prefer top-posting, and some of
them are willing to argue the point to death.  Combine them with people
willing to argue who dislike top-posting, and flame wars erupt.

We've stated our preferences, but it's not KLUG policy, so nobody is
going to try to enforce it on KLUG lists.  If some people continue to
top-post, live with it.  The listmaster and KLUG chairman has already
spoken on the subject and ask everyone to stop this thread.  I'm done.
