I am curious about the "top post" comment. It appears that bottom posting encourages bandwidth waste and the inclusion of way too much verbiage, especially in longer threads. Since all prior occurances in the thread would likely contain the same stuff, seems redundant. I realize that some folks use readers that make this desirable, and I'm not flaming. Just curious about why this became the "way" to do it on usenet? -- Michael Press |

Safety issue always number one. There are always exceptions.
Like stop signs in parking lots. Don't worry about them unless other vehicles are around.

I am not negotiating on top posting. Parents provide structure in a child's life, and help the child develop self-discipline. Michael Press Michael, Negotiations, lol. TA has to do with Parent, Child, Adult ego states in every transaction people make when they open their mouth or act out inner/exterior communications. My example sentence is the most representative statement which defines best the difference between the ego states. It may take more than looking and misunderstanding Wikepedia's sometimes scrambled meanings. And yes, I have a graduate degree in Human Relations, but it is not hard to understand: in fact TA is astoundingly simple compared to Psychology mile long meaningless terms without meaning. Negotiating? Lol, it does take more time than hacking up a thread message and glancing at Wikepedia though. Parents can be nurturing, demanding, scolding, critical, or any number of psychological games with the opposing Child psychological game. ALL Parent or Child interactions ARE psychological games. Not all bad, but most of them are detrimental and prevents intellectual development, accountability, and resolution. The Adult ego state is the only ego state that does not utilize psychological games, whichoften involve 'Tragic life scripts'; and is purely intellectual like Spock on Star Trek. You did say you were a Trekkie didn't you? Parents can and usually are self rightious pretentious rule making non-negotiating closed minds, like The Decider, GW Bush. Before you lock your mind, you should be more open. If it doesn't hurt anyone else than who cares? Do you read 100% of what is written in threads? Do you think you are an Apostle writing the Newest Testiment? I may have glanced once or twice so far as to the meaning of the source message if it is brief. If the person has something to say then why rehash reading history again? If you do, then the responsibility of communication is always the sender, and they are rarely worth reading if the message is not clear and can stand on its own merit of the message independently communicated. For example, in your rush to (Parent) Scold me, you missed a revolutionary idea about why metallic rust (Salmon) pads overheat, the true intuitive source, why past solutions were inneffective, and a proposed solution that has a highly probable chance of success. Then when you couldn't demand attention like your own Parents may have required, you pouted from a Rebelious Child 'game' and never progressed any further intellectually. Not to mention, you were absolutely wrong based on a 'rigid' rule, by 'bloggers'. I would give you a couple of good easy books to read on the subject, since none are artificially deep, but I would have to first check and verify what Wikepedia has to say :-o |

You're right that people's ego states sometimes turn threads into Tragic Life Scripts. But it's not all bad. You and I are motivated only by the pursuit of total logic, but sometimes it's people's egotistical desire to prove each other wrong at all costs that's what drives them to spend the effort to write clear and well-researched posts. |

I had the discussion sorted by date, so one post didn't necessarily follow the one it responded to. Even with your little top posted comment above, I had to ask myself "What the hell is he referring to?" Get with the program. If _everyone_ is telling you you're doing it wrong, why persist? Learn to do it right. It works. - Frank Krygowski |

Because everyone does it and gives no more valid reasoning than that, it does not come close to better logic and integrity. When it is applicable, it will be done. Otherwise there are NO absolute rules in form no matter what you 'bark'. Minutia and human factor engineering is ignored by the ones who act like a 'standard' is the only measure of their worth. You can't see the big picture for being overly concerned about minor insignificant details. |
