Try visiting USENET for a few months. This top-vs-bottom thing flares up
right often. I just saw it recently on alt.games.video.sony-playstation2
and I've seen it plenty of other times.

Really, how can we expect to co-exist in real life (Pakistan vs. India,
Palistine vs. Israel, Catholics vs. Protestants, Letterman vs. Leno) if
we get so bent out of shape so often in our virtual lives? :^)
