Cute. :P
Left and right posting are both inferior to top posting, which
in turn is less preferred than bottom posting. Left and
right are harder to read.
For that matter, front and back posting - wherein one's
words are superimposed on the quoted words - are even
less legible than left and right. (There are ways to do it,
e.g. with HTML emails or ASCII art.)
Also, removing quotes down to the relevant bits being
responded to is preferred.
