Moving to TBOT

And can you imagine the enormous overhead a server would have if it
had to parse each and every message to determine where to stick its
hop information instead of just sticking it on top.

Sometimes top posting is warranted (i.e. tech support situations
between two people), at work where everyone wants to top post, but on
these lists, it's not allowed.
