This answer is very good for "Top posts don't bother me as much as those who don't trim the quotes." also. :-) When top-posting, the advantage is that it is not important how many messages remain at the bottom, exactly because nobody reads what's below the current message anyway. :-) And by the way, there was a period when it was OK to say words like "black" but now it isn't. There was a period when it was OK to follow that old netiquette that said that bottom-posting is the good way, but now it isn't. So, for all of the list members, please don't remember about netiquette when talking about bottom-posting, because it is very rude to bottom-post. Better say that bottom-post is an old habit (and advanced programmers usually have old habits and not the newbies) and that the rules are enforced by the advanced programmers because they can help the others, and they want to everyone respect their preferences as a respect for their efforts of helping the newbies for free, not because the netiquette says this or that.
