Ole Dad was quite a guy. We shared the same birthday,
birth-day-of-the-week and same birth hour. 11/11 - Friday and 11PM.
That's about as Scorpio as it gets. I share that birthday with Kurt
Vonnegut Jr, and General Patton. Yeah, I love a good time, just don't
woof on me. :)

About the bottom posting; once you digest the notion that what you write
is for posterity, someone in the future reading the events unfold, top
to bottom, is more natural to the 3rd person reader. Top posting is
really for email exchanges with friends. Technical writing needs to have
the solution follow the problem. After a while, you'll come to loathe
top posting in a technical forum. It creeps up on you. Enjoy! :) Ric
