I am with you guys, posting at the bottom makes no sense to me.  Why
force me to scroll through all the previous posts, the posts I just
read, to get to the new reply?  Get me to the new stuff quickly, so I
like top posters.  I believe netiquette dictates that either top or
bottom posting is O.K. as long as it remains consistent throughout a
thread: if people have been bottom posting you should continue the
convention, if people have been top posting do likewise.

Interesting debate...
