Sometimes I have to misbehave, act like a troll etc., BUT I welcome that on Linux mailing lists it's common to do this using the real name. Way of behaving is not to fake an identity. The Internet anonymity is grotesque, it's like talking to a chatbot like ELIZA (Weizenbaum is one of my idols :). Did you note that most Linux users use their real names :)? This is more important for me than thinking about top and bottom posting rules. Cheers! Ralf
