Hello Carl,

More and more these days, on many mailing lists, I see *real* bottom
posting(1); Several screens of quoted text below which is added a word
or two of reply. It's got to the stage for me that, when I see emails,
the first thing I check is the scroll bar. If that indicates more than
two screens of text, I simply ignore it - it's rare indeed that, on a
mailing list, an email worth reading is that long.
(1) Possibly as a result of people misusing the term when they really
mean in-line or interpolated posting.
