I think that there is a bit of confusion here. On the one hand we talk of
"standards" and on the other speak of accomodation. I submit that the
de facto standard is the way that millions of emailers send email, not
the way that a miniscule number of newsgroupies do. As far as
accomodation, please note that I, in fact, do bottom post. I just don't care
if someone else does not.
As far as removing shoes, I guess it depends on how bad your feet stink
and what that does to the taste of the sushi.
