Exactly what qualifies someone as an internet pro, and according to what
standard is posting at the bottom preferred on the internet? Assuming it
is even preferred on usenet.

OK, I'll do some of your homework for you...

Uh, sorry. Not a standards body. Refers to an faq.org site which
SPECIFICALLY states that their suggestions are not a standard.

Your response does not meet the criteria at all, so your implication that I
was lazy and did not do my own homework is therefore out of line. Unless
you want to avoid guilt of hypocrisy (you were too lazy to find it either)
you may want to admit thta I am right.

Its not a standard, though top posting may be preferred by a reasonably
vocal group for reasons well spelled out in my own response to my post which
you ignored because you were so intent on scoring a point.

In further response to my own question let me state that while I still
haven't found any reasonable criteria for the term "internet pro", I can
tell you that its NOT someone who doesn't know what a "standard" is.

Also, let me point out that if I have a snappy one liner of little
historical value I will continue to post it on top if I like. You are free
to ignore it, or anything else I post.
