Better for who? For you maybe, but for most of the people is much better now 
than dozens years ago.
But it is all right, from your "oldspeak" I don't think you are one of those 
who sustain that old netiquette. :-))

Yes. Me and many others.

I bottom post (on Perl - related mailing lists) and also usually trim the old 
posts, but not because bottom-post is the right way for Windows users - for 
most computer users, but because this is the preference of many Perl experts on 
these lists and it is a form of respect for their efforts, not for their 
opinions regarding the political corectness.
