As they say on Wikipedia, 'citation needed'. I'd love to see some
examples of people getting flamed for not top-posting, if only so I can
append it to a file I keep of the more moronic things I see on the
Internet.

The only place I can see where top-posting is the standard is in
Enterpriseland. And, well, I steer very clear of everything Enterprisey
for this reason alone.
