My first reaction was "Please, don't praise me (really, I mean it, don't)" but I thought might be taken the wrong way. Rather, I would point out that I am not the only Tipster to provide a summary and link about an article in a post. Allen Esterson often does the same, Stephen Black does so inconsistently, and there are others. I do find it somewhat strange when someone says something in the subject line but only provides a link in the body of post. As curious as I may be, I am reluctant to click through without knowing more. So, it might be a nice consideration to other Tipsters to provide a summary and a link when referring to articles, websites, etc. -Mike Palij New York University [email protected] P.S. Really, don't praise me. --- You are currently subscribed to tips as: [email protected].
