It is sometimes difficult to tell whether a person is being serious or
humorous in written posts.  Although I cannot tell for sure the tone of
your message, I would answer the question by saying we are all here for
different reasons.  I would say that over 1/2 of the articles are of no
interest at all to me.

However, there is this fancy feature in most email programs called a
scroll bar.  I respectfully ask that if you do not wish to read a
particular article that you simply scroll past it rather than attempt
to deny the information to those of us who just may be interested in
it.

Thank you.
