Paul...

It's a simple matter conformity.

As you do, I also think that top posting makes more sense.
Like you do, I also keep a history of the threads.
Like you do, I also use a threaded email editor  
and like you do, I also see how obvious it is that top posting
is the most natural way to go,. But...

After arguing my face blue (actually my fingers sore), I came to the 
conclusion that "they" have as valid reasons to bottom post as we have to top 
post, (Most of the reasons having to do with them using brain dead email 
clients, or not saving the threads).  One point they do have though:
"When searching the internet, and viewing via the web, bottom posting
make more sense than top posting."

Unfortunately, the worse that can be done is to mix top and bottom
posting.  And there is more of them, than us...

So we conform to them....
