There are arguments for and against top or bottom replies.

In this reply I have chosen "below", but then I have pruned the whole
email thread from your posting. There is the point, we are not
exchanging emails, we are posting to a common thread within a
mailing-list. When posting to a mailing list there is no need to re-post
data that is already available within the mailing list. You only need to
leave the relevant text that you wish to refer to. <SNIPING> is encouraged!

With <SNIPING> and bottom replies you can read the whole post from top
to bottom in a logical manner. If you can't recall the previous post,
you can always refer back to the mailing list archives.
