When you get a minute, you might want to read these web pages. You've
been doing something we call "top posting" which is considered bad
etiquette in Usenet news groups such as this one. It's not the end of
the world, but may be something you wish to correct in the future.
Thankfully, it's easily remedied, and no level-headed person will hold
it against you if you correct your posting style now! As with most
things, the decision is yours - do whatever you think is best:

Q: What is one of the most annoying things in news groups
