I prefer top-posting, personally. :)

I acknowledge mixing top-posting and bottom posting is confusing. But
most mail clients default to top-posting these days, so most newbies
top-post. Most old school mailing list people try to enforce bottom
posting. It ends up being a mess. I think it's a losing battle.
I just roll with it and not fret too much. Life's too short, really.
