Hi Roger,

I would add:

I need help!!!!
and
I have a question!!!!

The reason these torque me is that I don't know if the topic is something I
know about and/or care about. You HAVE to read it to see. Just a LITTLE
hint in the subject would be nice.

I'm probably being too ornery about it, and miss learning something or
possibly being in a position to give an answer. But there are so many
posts...
