By top posting you immediately start off many yards behind the line of scrimage.

That said ... this is usenet. Sybrand can post, as long as he is on-topic anything he wishes. If you aren't happy with what he has posted then the onus is upon you to provide a better answer: Not to criticize what he has done. That you didn't have anything to post other than criticism reminds me of the following:

Critics are like eunuchs in a harem; they know how it's done, they've seen it done every day, but they're unable to do it themselves
