If by your own admission, there are more im****tant windmills to tilt,
then why is it too hard for some to just tow the line and do what's
right? Top posting is NOT the end of the world, but it's the accepted
practise, and it's the height of ignorance and disrespect to do
otherwise - especially on Anzac day. Some of our forefathers gave
their lives to give these top posters the freedom to do what they want
- and unfortunately this includes top posting. Please don't let all
these diggers lives be lost in vain. Do the right thing.
