Subject: Re: Slightly OT: Top Posting
Josh, somethings are not merely a matter of opinion. Classic top
posting to a listserv is objectively counter productive behavior. The
links I provided explain the reasons better than I could. Some people
think schools should just use a value of 3 for pi, nominally because
it simplifies the calculation. That is ignorant. Some people think
evolution and creationism have equal scientific weight. Such
positions are certainly ones right, but that doesn't mean they are
uninformed. If you don't understand some of the arguments experts
make, I would be glad to provide further illustration. In particular,
some people assert that using assistive technology changes the
equation, but that position has no merit either. I am sorry if it
sounds harsh to label your preferred such habits as ignorant, but I do
not know a word that would be accurate without being pejorative. Your
are rejecting 30 years of usenet experience and the lucid advise of
subject matter experts, all because something is slightly easier for
you. Just hit command-a, delete before responding to an archived
list. How hard is that? And you won't advertise to the world that
either you don't know better, or worse, that you don't care.
