Okay if you insist. But; still say Top posting is mor logical.

As for top posters forgetting to snip. I find that bottom poster forget
far more often. I've seen case in thi newsgroup on my 56K connection
that i have had to wait a full 30 seconds or more just for the new
thread to download, then I have to scroll another 15 seconds to get to
bottom of post. so its not just top posters that break the rule.

And what's even more irrataing is interpersed replies.
