When I started using Octave bottom-posting was foreign to me.  Now I'm 
completely hooked.  As bottom posting conveys information more effectively and 
efficiently, I think it is more than a subjective/cultural thing. Bottom 
posting is particularly effective when an individual comes to the conversation 
late or stumbles across an email archive via Google.
