>THEY SCROLL UP/DOWN IN DIFFERENT DIRECTION!

1) Imagine that in emacs you are scrolling a typewriter (you know, the
   kind with platens and all).  You turn the platen upwards to move
   to lower parts of the page, etc.  Remember, emacs was written
   back before wordprocessors and window systems were common items.

2) Does it matter?  Normally you would use the key rather than
   typing in scroll-up.  By the time you learn enough to type
   the whole command in, you should be well versed in how it
   works.  Note:  The function is normally bound to the key
   Control-V, and V is a downwards pointing letter!

3) What is "intuitively" the best way varies from person to
   person, and is useless as an argument.  Perhaps intuitively
   cars should always drive on the right side of the road?

4) Who CARES if things are different?  Do you want the computer
   police wandering around everywhere to make sure all programs
   behave the same?  If so, go tell it to your apple marketeer.

5) Are you really confused, or trying to raise an irrelevant
   question in your fight to show that emacs is substandard?
