This has to be the one of the primary reasons people get up-in-arms
over others trying to push the whole bottom-posting thing.  Everytime
it's talked about, someone always goes the route of arrogance,
bringing up some RFC or throwing the word "ettiquette" around, all the
while acting like the top-poster just "doesn't get it".

It's entertaining really, but none the less even if it is kicking a
dead horse I wanted to drive that point.  No one is right, and no one
is wrong.  RFCs and discussions of it can be done til everyones blue
in the face.
