Re: TOP POSTING MAKES SENSE, AND GOOD FORM


And d'ya know what?

My argument is better than your argument because
It's on top and yours is lost in the bottom somewhere!

Now, let's hear from whoever it was who started this off
(he is somewhere at the bottom of all this and I'll be
damned if I'm scrolling down to see who started this).

Of course, e-mails can - and should - be top-posted
since they aren't threaded and such.

This is kind of like archaeology... the newest stuff is at the top.
But i frown upon Greg's pizza comment. Too bad it's *somewhere* in
this thread, and you'll have to search to find it.

Here, I'll top post some more into the thread.

Let's build it up a bit and see if it really is better this way.

Do you know who started it? Who replied next?
(Don't cheat - read this reply first without looking
anywhere else for a clue.)

Boy - this really is fun. I wonder if pun threads
can work top-posted better than bottom posted?

Annoying, ain't it?

I have no idea who decided that it was improper to top post in reply to a

Republican.

Just people who read long threads.

What the devil does top-posting mean, anyway?
