Perhaps the majority of the usenet posts you see are bottom posted, but the
majority I see are top posted.

And there are a tremendous number of newsgroups out there; I seriously doubt
that either of us have seen even a small fraction of them.

When I visit a newsgroup where bottom-posting seems to be the convention, I
bottom-post; it's not a religion with me.

But it appears that most top-post on this newsgroup, so I top-post here.

And my initial comment: "Actually, "bottom-posting" is conventional on
Usenet only among people who say "bottom-posting" is conventional on Usenet"
was intended to be humorous; I picked up: ""bottom-posting" is conventional
on Usenet" from someone else on this thread. I'm sorry you failed to see the
humor on it.

So why is it that you se the MAJORITY of usenet posts, using bottom
posting
mixed in style? Does that not matter at all to you?


Most everyone else top-posts. If you are reading a top-posted thread,
you
open a message, read the top few lines, then move to the next message,
no
scrolling to the bottom required.


If, and only if, you only have one comment to make. Top posting does not
work any other way.


Much more convenient...


The only thing convenient thing to do, is for you to **** people off, as
you
are doing by your illogical insistence that you are right, and the other
90%
are wrong.

Right now, I think it will be more logical for me to plonk yur a**.
