Top posting has been used since the very first email programs
were written... I was there.

Really? You used READMAIL/SNDMSG, and exchanged emails with Ray Tomlinson?

Bottom posting has been the preferred method from day 1 for USENET, which is the medium most comparable to an email reflector.

It's interesting, though, that most top-posting MUAs insist on putting a new .sig all the way at the bottom. What's the logic behind that?

it was a real pain to have to download several pages of quoted
message only to see "me to" at the bottom.

People who don't trim are even worse than top-posters.
