Paul,

I certainly said that I am lazy, and I repeat it again - I AM LAZY!

But, just for your edification, I want to let you know that it *IS* a LOT of extra trouble for me to put my responses at the top of my replies. This is, I am advised, because of a bug in MSIE.
You see, as soon as I click at the first byte of a response area, about twenty lines become highlighted and SCROLL, leaving my original click spot off the top of the area. So then I have to scroll back up and click THE SAME SPOT again. Then, and only then, can I start typing.
But I do it because I firmly believe that it is easier on (more than) half the subsequent readers of the threads.

Cheers,
Jim N
