Default Mxs wins.

Well, I'm going to take a break from this group for a while. The signal to
noise level is so high, and the volume of junk so large, it takes too much time
and annoys me.


That's just silly, Jim. You make skipping a thread sound like changing
the transmission in your van at OSH! (Oh, wait, you've done THAT
already... ;-)

Honestly, computers have made us SO lazy. Whenever the computer takes
a while to download a file, we like to yell out "Dang it -- just LOOK
at this thing! I don't have all MINUTE!" Our expectations of speed
and results versus time expended have become absurdly unrealistic.

Skipping a thread -- or marking it "read" -- takes a second. I'm
unable to do even that using these stupid Google Groups (which I'm
stuck using at the hotel), but I don't find it difficult to simply not
read dumb threads.

There's a lot of value here, and you're one of the more level-headed
aviators in the group. Start some good threads, instead of leaving,
dang it!
