I guess you are right - it does happen occasionally (and it is really only
occasionally), and when it does it continues for a while.
To be fair, I've gotten to the stage where there are things in the list
that don't interest me (topics that I am not involved with at the moment) -
I'll either just filter these into the SLUG - To Be read Later" mailbox, or
delete them entirely.
Each to their own, I guess.... I think the signal-to-noise ratio is getting
better - the amount of technical expertise that's available on this list is
worth putting up with some OT posts....
And let's face it - geeks have to have fun sometimes (even at Bill's
expense !!)
:-)
Regards,
Jon
