Re: [tlug] An old topic



I find it rather ironic that in the message below, the comment on the
signature was above the quoted signature, and the comment on the comment
was above the comment.

Presumably, though the more recently written text is above the text
that's quoted from older messages, this is not top posting. I look
forward to finding out why. :-)
