Bandwidth isn't my concern (though, try 50KB x 5500 users x 200 messages / day 
for closer bandwidth numbers for this list).  Readability is.  

Go to this url:

and tell me that you can honestly read that quickly.  Note the mix of top and 
bottom posting, the multiple copies of the list footer, etc.  This supposedly 
"reduces the burden on the user"?  That's a laugh.

Additionally, top posting is quite rude to continue doing when people have 
been asked _many_ times to not do it on this list.  If I have to start 
enforcing rules, I will.
