I could take offense from that comment but I won't. Being thoughtful 
and/or polite has nothing to do with top or bottom posting, not in 
this day and age. As posted by others, there are circumstances that 
leave no option but top posting, such as using a mobile device such 
as.... duh! Apple's own iPhone and iPod Touch. And then there's even 
Apple Mail... set to default to top posting. If you were a thoughtful 
and polite person you might understand those limitations, set by 
Apple itself, that make bottom posting to an Apple-related list a bit 
difficult for some people.

It really sucks that a forum for communication is being held hostage 
by some folks who really could use a bit more fiber in their diet. 
Those who *strenuously* and *adamantly* object to top posting have 
already posted a solution --- don't respond to those who top post. 
Those of us who understand there are limitations that make bottom 
posting difficult can continue to respond to those queries that we 
can.
