I didn't know there's so many views on top posting! Reading through the comments and the replies,
here are my thoughts and actions:

1. Bill is an active member of the mailing list. He has helped many people including me in better understanding some of the finer points with the language, and I am grateful for that. Someone said that he's cranky. But I never really saw him that way. Thanks Bill.

2. Someone also said that OE enforces top posting. I've been using OE to write and respond to stuff on this mailing list. Last I checked (http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Mail/Message/ActivePerl/2842492) OE seems to be doing a fair job at NOT top posting. But anyway, I enjoy the energies in this mailing list, and am switching to a dedicated email address specially for mailing lists, and I'm using ThunderBird to manage this account.

3. Most of the people I see on this mailing list are adults and professional dudes. If you are one of them, please refrain from making emotional comments like 'if you top-post, you are a loser and so is your mom'. Dude, grow up.

Hope get and give more from this excellent Perl support group. Thanks!
