Also, I find it ironic that you accuse those who disagree with you of being luddites, when most of them are using email clients that do threading and quote suppression, which makes top posting a more coherent model. Sounds like you have insufficient technology on your end. At the end of the day, I can't believe we're going through this discussion again. You can bemoan the bad habits that AOLers brought with them when they showed up on the net 15 years ago all you want, but the tides of history are against you. Personally, I'm thankful for them bad habits, netiquette cluelessness and all, because they create the demand for the work I do. People who complain about top posting are just like Nazis. Now that Godwin's law has come into play, can we please end this?
