i find bottom posting to be moderately more annoying than top posting.
top posters are basically: i'm too lazy to spend any time editting, so i'll
just toss my comments at the top, because my time is more important than
anyone else's.
bottom posters are basically: i'm too lazy to remove irrelevant content,
but, just to be pedantic, i'll add my comments to the bottom.
personally, i'll read top posts, and be a bit irritated.
bottom posts, i'll generally skip because the author obviously doesn't value
their own words.
