Actually top posting is a sign of *experience*. Us guys that were on the internet back when it was run by darpa always top posted. That was because we were running very slow lines, typically 110 to 300 baud, and it was desirable not to have to wait through the down load of a dozen copies of the same quoted material as we progressed through a thread. Bottom posting forced everyone on the newsgroup to fully download every article waisting tons of our very limited bandwidth and time. Top posting allowed you to get right to the meat of the article in the first few seconds of downloading... and it allowed you the option of continuing to footnotes if you really needed to. You newbies have dozens of ways of trying to impose your will on the group. Most of your so called rules of etiquette are simply you following the bottom posting convention that was set up as a default on internet explorer. Rn, trn, tin, and other premicrosloth news readers defaulted to top posting. You are so spoiled by high bandwidth and large amounts of memory that you think that a posting arrives at your machine in its full length instantly.. and for all practical purposes, it does. I can go either way. I do, however, get very tired of having to scroll through the same old quoted crap at the top of post after post... just to get to the bottom and find the highly informative, but typical, "me too" tacked onto the end. -Chuck |

Do the math, if you can't, I'll help you: 56K/1000 = 56 bps. If there were *only* 1000 users vying for the net at the same time, they could each pump 56bps into the backbone.

ARPANET and Usenet did not exist at the same time. ARPANET didn't use TCP/IP protocol, and it gave way to what is now called the Internet when TCP/IP became the standard packet delivery protocol. Shortly after that, the message posting system called Usenet was formalized to run on the Internet and on several other message delivery systems (such as UUCP).

They happen to be in my library of reference textbooks, and they happen to be standard references kept in all university libraries. Just because you can find the names of some books by using google, doesn't mean you have ever read them, or understood them. I have copies of all three volumes of "Internetworking with TCP/IP- Client -Server Programming and Applications" by Douglas E. Comer, and David L. Stevens, Prentice Hall on my book shelf. (pick a page, any page, and I'll give you a quotation from it.) If you note the copyright date of this series, you will see 1993. A mere 20 years after I started working with GE's world wide networks... top posting my email on model 33 teletypes with bell 103 modems. The claim about slow speeds on ARPANET and Usenet is quite stupid. Really? Well, I suppose you think that everyone had 56K connections back in the '70's. I worked in the Electrical Engineering department at the University of Maryland, back then, and we were pretty proud of our first 9600 baud connection between the PDP11's, and the Univac's that had the darpa connection. It wasn't until we got a VAX 11/780 that we got a 56K pipe to the Univac's that connected to the darpanet. That was around 1980. I think diapers were you most prominent media for communication back then. ARPANET and Usenet did not exist at the same time. ARPANET didn't use TCP/IP protocol, and it gave way to what is now called the Internet when TCP/IP became the standard packet delivery protocol. Prior to usenet, a variation on email, we were using email broadcast lists. The same top posting rules applied. Usenet came into being while I was in graduate school, around 1980-83. I remember there was quite a buzz at that time. Decwriters were 300 baud, and the most common affortable modems were still using the Bell 103 standard from the late '50s. 1200 baud modems were used for expensive applications, usually computer to computer data transfer. The 1200 baud modem didn't come into general use until DC Hayes produced an inexpensive model around 1983. It was a real screamer compared to the Bell 103's. Shortly after that, the message posting system called Usenet was formalized to run on the Internet and on several other message delivery systems (such as UUCP). So your reference to ARPANET is simply irrelevant. ARPANET and Usenet never coexisted, making the claims about 300 bps and other speed limitations total BS intended to impress the ignorant. Enough said. Conversation ended. You don't seem to be worth any followup messages until you do some additional reading. I don't need to read about it, I was there doing it. My first exposure to a world wide network was GE's back around 1970. It was the first commercial use of a global network. The normal terminal to connect to that net was a Model 33 Teletype, with a bell 103 modem. I bet you think they used Windows based PC's with 56K modems, and Netscape. -Chuck |
