Right, that’s why they have high/low volume lists in other communities, separates out the technical from the noise. There are lots of places to find noise, and few to find some of the information on this list. By volume, the white noise just escalates and begets other irrelevant noise in some sort of asymptotic trend that doesn’t seem worth the effort to manage to get to what’s of interest, so it becomes a chore not to round-file the whole list traffic. Seems like there’s around 5 people generating the noise source, so relevant to the total number of list members it’s a very, very small group generating extra work for the other vast majority of subscribers. If you got these five people in a room and let them talk, most everyone else would leave to do productive things. Sure does waste time though.
