Well, now that the pressure's off, or lightened, how about editing
your posts, and also NOT top posting?
he means what you did just here, and in your other posts. :) you put
your response above the quoted message you were replying to, rather
than below it. please don't do this; it makes it difficult to follow
the conversation, and thus it decreases the likelihood that you will
get the responses you want.
also, when i just now did a google search for "top posting", the
entire first page of hits were all links that explained what he was
talking about.

While I know that the practice won't, and shouldn't change for me, I
would just like to say that for some of us, top posting is more
useful. I am a blind computer user, and top posting is easier to
handle. I can read the response, and continue reading if I need
context, more information etc.
Unix/Linux people tend to be pretty black and white, and the world
should be a certain way ... but remember, others of us may have a
good reason for wanting a different world!
