The other day I inadvertently bottom-posted to a relatively small
mailing list of (mostly non-tech) friends. One (of the tech variety)
responded so:
"David, It's over. We lost. The world settled on doing it the wrong
way. You did it the wrong way with us, for a decade. Remember? When
you reply-bottom now, all you do is mess up the threading.
Condolences,
Andrew"
He's probably right.
