I'm pondering on alternatives to just switching it off to be honest - I do 
something like the speed reading - but can't help wondering if we could 
reorganise the 'litter'.  The internet seemed to offer some chance but now 
seems subsumed in the litter production.  I believe we are witnessing 
widespread neurosis.  We've just had a classic case in the UK - two Civil 
Servants have just reported that there is no case that a cover up took 
place because all the documents are missing!  This was about institutional 
child abuse that clearly happened and was covered up!
