Pardon, but that's absolutely wrong. As somebody already wrote,
it's very hard to write a well formulated top-post. With a post
in the way I do it right now, it's not so hard - the writer
simply quotes what he sees as relevant and the responds.

Rightly so, as top-posting is a "new" phaenomenon and people should
be made aware right away, that they are (usually) mis-behaving
by top-posting.
