I agree that lack of trimming is th real problem. All this fighting 
about top vs bottom is overshadowing that point.

Ultimately though, it depends on the context. If I want an audit trail, 
then I top post. For fourms such as this I trim and inline. Often, after 
proper trimming, I find inline and bottom posting to be one and the same 
(as is the case with this email).
