You keep insisting something that is a preference is either correct or

I agree: if you refuse to accept the possibility that Microsoft flouted
longstanding Usenet etiquette by putting the cursor at the top, and everyone
else followed along because that's what the juggernaut led them to expect,
there's not much I can do about it.

I leave you with this thought: It's not a preference. It's been accepted as
good Usenet practice for at least 20 years to post as I do. Yes, I've been
around that long. Have you?

I hope I didn't throw you off by deleting the rest of the text. I apologize
if I lost you.

Not at all. You did exactly what you should have: you trimmed away what you
felt was unnecessary to include.

No, it's not that bad by a long ways. It is, however, a waste of bandwidth
and people's time, and an active encouragement for people to top-post.

It seems the best way for your post to be seen is to copy/paste the
pertinent nugget(s) to the top of the post, and then post your comments
directly beneath them -- like this.

I (and I'll bet many others) usually skip posts that make me scroll ten
pages to the bottom.
