It is also not civil (:-)) to ask questions which are answered in numerous
places. (See for example
	http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Top-posting
	or
	http://catb.org/~esr/jargon/html/T/top-post.html
)

Basically, you should quote the context of your reply *before* you
post your reply. Moreover, it is also a good practice to quote just
enough of the context for the reader to figure out the meaning. The
details can always be found by reading the original.

Regards,

Kapil.
