Works sometimes and sometimes it doesn't. I wish one rule could handle
all situations. For extremely long posts that are not reduced in size
bottom posting is a pain, especially when using the search engine at
google for groups.

Well, thats why most people who bottom post trim.

The whole point about this debate is not who top posts and who bottom posts,
and who trims and who doesn't (and which is best)

It's about presentation. If you post, you intend to be heard. If you
intend to be heard you should make the effort to present your argument well,
or not bother.

Trimming and bottom posting (or posting inline) is the best way to present
the information in almost all cases. If you are going to post at the top,
then the information below is detached from the reply and pretty much
useless (so you might as well trim it all). It's the idiots who put their
one-line reply (which is often pointless or hard to see) right before 30+
lines of included text (without so much as even hitting return after it to
separate it from the rest) that annoy me.

People who top post rarely trim anything ever, and you just end up with a
whole mess of characters in the message that are meaningless as they have no
context. It's not the top-posting per se that's the problem, it's laziness
of presentation, and there is a high correlation between the two. That's
not to say that people who bottom post are all exquisite posters either,
that would be far from the truth. But trimming (to make the included text
relevant) and replying to the relevant parts in relevant places is at least
a start to getting your point across well.
