It's all in here somewhere.

and more specifically here

Those are good, dispassionate articles which explain the matter very well,
IMO. There will, of course, now be a furious debate on top-posting,
attributions and yet more on snipping. ;-))


Probably. My first group had a culture which practised all the
advisory conventions, and I read similar articles in the first week I
joined.
On the other hand, bottom posting (or interwoven) just seemed common
sense.

That should kick it off, now I.m off back to the Olympics. ;-)
