And yet millions of people -- those "stupid" Windows users that this
community crows over all the time -- seem to have no difficulty working
with top posting.  So much for "not adjusting".

Perhaps the truth lies more in "not wanting to adjust"....

I've been adjusted to it for over two decades -- and I'm a confirmed
bottom-poster.  It's really not that difficult.  All it takes is a basic
understanding of how people read anyway.  (Hint: good readers don't read
every word sequentially.)
