Now you've got me nervous.
What's "top-posting"?

He may have been ready to solo, but got the jitters at the last

moment.

then he wasn't ready...


By that logic, any pilot who has an accident wasn't ready to be a pilot.

Or
any Usenet poster who top-posts isn't ready to be a Usenet poster.

Top posting, bottom posting... like high wing vs. low wing.

You wish. No one that cares about Usenet etiquette agrees with you.

None that I've ever been to. Top posting is a generally frowned upon
technique.

I hate bottom posting, at least when the person includes the entire
previous post. That makes me have to scroll down.

Me too. Generally if the interesting stuff doesn't at least
start in the first screenful then I just skip it.
