It isn't a HUGE deal, at least to me, unless someone goes out of their way to 
make it a huge deal.
Which is why I was sure to say that MILITANT top-posters get killfiled-- that 
class of posters who
always make a point of mentioning (or even focusing on) in every post how 
superior they are for
top-posting and how anyone who doesn't top-post is an idiot (and there are more 
than just a handful
of those).  If it is an otherwise "normal" poster who just happens to top-post, 
I cope.  But it does
screw with the flow of the thread.
