They wanted bottom posting so they are getting it. As for myself, I 
think it is illogical, and a waste of time. I have long ago leaned to 
read upside down and backwards and preen the text of gazillions of 
meaningles words looking for the intent and the facts.

So, they make me scroll countless lines to see their text, I make them 
scroll too to see mine.

Bottom posting is stupid and I'm letting the linux and uniux minority 
tell me otherwise based on some old farts from long ago spreading their 
religion as if they were gods.

So byte me and mind your on business.
