For conclusive evidence as to why bottom posting is better go read a
book. Now I, and everyone I know, read the pages from the top down.
When I'm reading a conversation that takes place from pages 10-31 it's
nice nice to not have to start at page 31 and read bottom to top and
backwards, only to have to return to page 32 when the conversation is over.
Also, if you have ever, and I mean *ever*, had to follow a discussion on
a Linux mailing list where individual points are addressed with *middle*
posting (as in this response) you would have *never* asked that question.
