Top posting means the thread has to be read from the bottom up (minor 
annoyance), but what's really bad is when a single thread continuously 
mixes top and bottom posting. Then you have chaos. One solution to a 
mixed order thread (as I did here) is just to snip everything except 
what you're replying to, but that leaves newcomers in the dark as to the 
rest of the context. Strange that Gmail took the Outlook Express route...
