Hi all !

Top posting is perfect in one-on-one communications where the reader
knows about what's going on (since he wrote it himself before).

But it is way better for mailing lists to bottom post. Sooner or later 
everyone who is reading a few hundred e-mails a day will find that out.

But - keep cool anyway ;-)
