[SLUG] Discussion List Guidelines

[Martin Webb]

*Whilst looking on the Scarborough Linux User Group website for 
information about Weds 19th's meeting, I re-read the following in the 
List Guidelines:

7.* Make your posts read from top to bottom. The MS practice of 
encouraging replies at the top of messages means massive amounts of 
bandwidth are wasted.

Could someone explain the bit about wasted bandwidth.  I'm interested 
because clients are asking questions about whether to reply at top or 
bottom of original message.  I tell them 'bottom', but can't explain why.
