"Well, it must be a sighted thing to hate top posting. As a screen
reader user, I love top posting as you are right there with what the
other person is saying easily accessible at the top of the heap. This
method, I call composting, as one has to listen to all the **** before
finding out what the replier is saying. Oh well, I will abide by the
wishes of the majority; no sweat. Did I do this right; I used Gregg's
great tip and told Outlook to use quotes before each line. A new
experience for an old dog."

No, it isn't a sighted person thing to hate top posting - I also love top
posting because I'd rather just cut to the chase of the response. If I'm
interested in threading back, I'd prefer to weave through the long e-mails
in reverse . . . but I, too, will abide by the wishes of the majority. And
it looks to me like you followed the convention just fine!
