-2 (or however many)

many (all?) of us read several posts so you end up with a bunch of 
nearly meaningless opening lines; why read further? with 
bottom-posting, you see right away what the issue was, which motivates 
further reading.

I know this is a perennial disagreement; perhaps top-posters might at 
least consider pruning the thread so it's easier to know what they are 
talking about.
