Top posting is just as bad as bottom posting if you don't remove any
irrelevant text.
Also if you inline post, delete anything after it. There are lots of
messages where:
[some text]
reply to [some text]
[heaps and heaps of unnecessary text]
Where the [heaps and heaps of unnecessary text] could easily be deleted
saving bandwidth/storage etc. and also making message cleaner and easier
to parse.

I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god
than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other
possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.
