Re: On posting style WAS: question on jeep dealer refusing service.
I wasn't broke until I blew my paper route stash (and more) on a TI99/4A
in 1982. I used to be a bottom-post **** when I started dabbling on
Usenet in the late 80s (rn!), but I now prefer reading top posts. Having
to click the *Read the rest of this message...* link to see a bottom
post when Googling an archived thread gets tedious.
