and I get only here the TOP posting crap...

Me not, even enterprises like Maxim, Dallas, National, Analog Devices,
NXP, Atmel, Linear Technology prefer my reponding style (even they ask
to leave the rest of the mail untouched).
But Imagine, there is a technical support, and all peoples do toppost
and the technical support is NOT one person but several... EACH
technical support person has to read the WHOLE message to know, what the
OP has asked...
In topposting there is NO efficiency...
It multiplies the work for nothing.

TRUE bottom posting is crap too...

RTL and LTR have nothing to do BOTTOM/TOP posting
since RTL can be BOTTOM too
