Default Why Is Austria Skiing Dirt Cheap For USA Right Now?

In k, Ivan Rafn typed:

Hi, I am puzzled too.

Please don't be offended, but in Scandinavia and all cross Europe we
would surely call a town like St. Anton a town. This apparently is
different in UK.
I am curious, how do one differentiate between a town and a mere
station?


I think to put it simply a Ski Station may be a village or a town, or just
some buildings at the bottom of a lift. in europe most ski stations are
towns, but elsewhere this may not be the case.

(And try to bear with the top posters, Outlook Express , the most
widely used newsreader/mailer, has its default that way. It creates a
blank line on top, and places the insertionpoint there. You have to
remember to delete the top line and skip to the bottom every time you
post, - slips me from time to time as well)

Best regards


Bottom posting is a pain! it is a remnant of using teletypes. Why can't we
move with the technology?

I only bottom post, because if you don't you get shouted at. If people
snipped irrelevant text it would not be such a problem, but they don't and I
get ****ed off by having to scroll down through reams of stuff I have read
before to find a 1 line silly comment at the bottom. if it was top posted
life would be much simpler!

I use OE-quotefix which can be set to make OE bottom post
