Aside from mailing lists, I tend to be a top poster.  I don't like when 
people leave the last 12 emails and then bottom post.. i have to  
scroll all day.  The other irritant is people who actually post in the 
middle of messages.  That breaks the "FLOW" as well.  After someone 
replies top or bottom its VERY hard to read.

How about a new convention.  Delete everything but the last reply in 
the thread when you send to the list and say bottom post.  I can live 
with that as a top poster.  If I don't have to scroll all day to bottom 
post, its not a big deal.

The bottom line is that people reply.  This list is here to help users 
with FreeBSD.  I'd take an answer to my questions in any format!
