As Top versus Bottom posting concerns, either way goes for
me. But please 
remove all uncommented parts of the conversation. That's
far worse.
(Must admit sometime I also reply to fast and forget to
remove
everything).

When replying to a message, include enough original material
to be
understood but no more. It is extremely bad form to simply
reply to a
message by including all the previous message: edit out all
the
irrelevant material.

  Agreed - use either form, but keep it clean/relevant.  I
think
this particular thread was not only getting large in size,
but
was alternating in top- and bottom-posting each message,
which is
about the worst case.
