With this I agree.

Mark, you tend to hit "Reply," type a one-liner such as you did above, then
simply hit "Send." While that's enormously simple for you, and it's easy to
understand why you do it, I have noticed I do a lot of space-bar-banging
when you post.

I think Dom was a little too enthusiastic in jumping on Brian the first
time, and I also offer MHO that top- or bottom- posting is really a question
of style and preference, with arguments in favor of each. However, while I
don't think *Brian* was out of line or rude, I do see way, way, way too many
posts around here that waste my (precious) time banging on a space bar to no
avail.

(Me? I'm a bottom-poster by preference... that way it's *always*
chronological, and I read the question before the answer. Too many times I
read a top-posted answer then have to go hunting for the question, then back
to the answer so it makes sense.)

Just my $0.02...
