"Top posting" is posting your reply at the top of a message, so it appears before the material it replies to.  This often makes it harder for the reader to follow because she has to scroll down to see the original context and then scroll back up to read the reply.  Most top posters exacerbate the problem by quoting the entire message instead of trimming to the relevant parts.

The better method is interlinear replying, where each portion of the reply follows the quote that it is in reply to, as I am doing with this message.

 Thank you. Understood. As Bill Briggs said "Even a former Dean can understand it. ;-)" To which I reply "Indeed, I can". Thank you both, because I had thought "top posting" was trying to put someone else's reponse down; trying to "top" them, and I didn't think I was doing that; was in a position to do that. I will pay more attention to pruning the items to which I'm responding as well. I have a 10 Mb 'hose' and don't think of the impact of including too much. In a former life, everything got left in a bouncing RE: email to form a record of one negotiation among many ongoing.
