I use the list mostly to ask a question and, when I am able, to give an
answer
I agree with you completely. It's amazing to me that anyone would
even be concerned enough to have an opinion about the issue to
make an unequivocal statement about it.

Oh here we go...
Time to add my 2 cents worth.
I always top post. There is nothing wrong with it and there is nothing

top=bad and bottom=good came from. This was certai

The problem with top posting, a problem no one seems to understand
despite it being so simple,
I fix computers for a large number of people and a lot of these are

I top post.
I don't think it helps to beat on people for their posting styles. It
helps simply to respond to the issue under discussion.
