Actually it is more commonly accepted that narrowing down the original
message to only the relevant information, and then FOLLOWING that
information with the new post is considered proper etiquette when
participating in conversations on new groups.

That being said, there are going to be people who top-post, and
because of those people, there are going to be other people who will
simply ignore them.

Funny, your disclaimer is longer than your message... and doesn't seem
to make much sense. Also mail signatures should be separated from the
original message.
