I left this for others to answer, but noone referred to the 
authoritative source ;)

Note that both the previous responses to your question have violated 
etiquette by quoting the entirety of your original message, rather than 
quoting only the portions which are being answered. In that way, they 
provided excellent examples of top-posting and its evils, assuming you 
already knew the definition.
