Because that's how one reads, from the beginning of a story to the end. <br> Each post is like a conversation in a novel.

Exactly, so why would you start at the bottom with your post? <br> Bottom posting arguments and other general stupidity is killing it. <br> Usenet reads like a book, top posters are a pain in the ass.

Go to the medical boards sometime. <br> Arthritis, chronic pain, cancer, etc. <br> See if your &gt;99% observation applies. <br> When economy of movement, as well <br> as a small group that knows what has <br> come before, top posting is most practical. <br> Hmm, now that I think of it, there is an <br> enormous number of specific-interest

On Thu, 7 Jan 2010 07:44:24 -0800 (PST), ULB <br> I think your use of a car battery, in this application, is <br> good. It will have _no_ problems sourcing the current needed <br> and the squibs will heat quickly. Which is what you want. No <br> need for a capacitor. In fact, ignore my comments there.

ftp??? Boy, that came along much later. Usenet is an offshoot of old <br> 'bulletin board' systems. Starting out on UN*X machines at <br> universities, it used UUCP to transfer batches of messages from machine <br> to machine. That was pre IP-protocol days. <br> Browsers <br> Change that to 'news readers' and you'd be right. 'Browsers' were

Actually, 'usenet' is a lot older than the WWW. Before http and www, <br> there was uucp (unix-to-unix copy). You could send e-mail and usenet <br> messages without an 'internet'. <br> daestrom
