I don't think you get it!
This is better and more complete.
Your brain works slow.
Your brain was slowly damaged by a lack of stimulation as a toddler.
It was wrong for your mother to do that.
She was not wrongly committed to the insane asylum.
Hope that helps,
Mike

Your NOT sticking with the crowd. Take some time and read some groups,
you will find the convention is bottom posting.
Regulars don't use browsers for a newsgroup, they use a newsreader.
If you were right, you would not be getting flack from the regulars?
Note, I agree with your logic, top posting would be easier for the way
I read the groups. But that is not the convetion. You could drive on the
right* so you so you have a better sense of where the centerline is, but
that's not the convention. If you drive on the right it screws up traffic.
Join the crowd.

It mostly depends on what you want to do. A few years ago there was
no usenet and no regulars.. Just ordinary people like you and me.
Then a few decided to become the "net cops" and make rules for
others.

Not _rules_, just manners and, as new as it is, tradition.

Have you ever wondered why a place setting at a polite table is set out
the way it is?

It's because of the way the tools are used during a meal, with the order
going from the outside in as the meal progresses.

Notice, particularly, how the sharp edge of the knife's blade is placed
so as to face its user's plate instead of toward the guest sitting next
to it.

A very gracious way of presenting a symbolically non-threatening
attitude to a neighbor, methinks, instead of the perpetual frown you
arrogantly hostile top-posters seem to confront everyone with.
