I know. As I said when that discussion was active, I prefer top-replies. 
But my general rule is that if the post I am replying to has bottom-replies, 
I bottom-reply.  If there is no reply I top-reply.  Besides, I don't think 
that is really a big issue how how the posts are being replied to in terms 
of top or bottom.  What I  had in mind were just some general guidelines on 
how subject lines are used, something to point out what might be obvious to 
people already on the list (such as that posts get sometimes answered out of 
order, that people should re-read the posts if they feel offended by some 
replies) etc, and also some info on where the list archive resides on the 
web and how to search in it.  Just some general guidelines and info like 
that.  I don't think anyone is suggesting imposing any rules, I don't even 
think that would be possible considering this crowd.
