I agree that top-posting can sometimes be easier to read. However, from the perspective of someone who *often* searches the archives for answers it is usually *much* easier to find a complete problem/solution set when the responses are bottom posted and/or interleaved.

The objection people have about a short answer after a long post isn't cured by top-posting. It's cured by editing the quoted material to provide appropriate context without letting the length go bad.

Jo: It made the post harder to read.
Mo: Why is it bad?
Jo: Top-posting.
Mo: What was the problem with my post?
