Why would we not post our comments here? There are a number of reasons for
this, including the fact that there's a critical mass of people on
cpunx already, that it's usually more convenient to reply via email than
via some clunky web-based interface, that once "quicktopic.com" dies
its posts will disappear, but cpunx archives will, for better or
worse, live on, allowing future cpunxwannabes to RTFA.
