Wait - is bottom-posting a thing?  I've always assumed that bottom-posters are 
just careless; they read down to a certain point, and then type in their 
responses without thinking about where.  Are you saying that some people post 
at the bottom ON PURPOSE?!

But it gets to be a mess after just a few posts, unless people take the time to do some weeding, like you did with the bottom section. Most people don't take that time.


Yes!


Why, for heaven's sake?


You quote just the part you’re responding to, and then give your response. That 
way it’s unambiguous just what your response refers to. There’s no need to try 
scrolling through a long thread to figure out what set off the email.


I'll just type something here and see if anyone can find it.
Where's Waldo?
Isn't it Saturday?  Why am I looking at ibm-main?
