I apologize for this post but I have to speak my mind on this.. I have an Inbox rule that moves all cf-talk emails to another folder. I'm sure all of us are busy most of the day to read every email that comes in. Every 30-60 minutes, I check the folder and scan the topics. If I see something that interests me, I read it. If it is something I can help with, I read it. If it doesn't interest me, I ignore it. How hard is it for the rest of you guys to do. I know I DON'T have time to click on a link from an email to get rid of it..and why should I. If I don't want to read it, I don't. Some people on this list make such a HUGE deal about some OT posts that it makes me wonder if their job depends on whether or not they read EVERY SINGLE POST that comes in. Some people need to get a life (or back to work) if that's the case. I don't know how much it pay's to read every post, but I don't think I'm qualified.

Breneman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, October 04, 2002 10:50 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: OT topics and posts about OT topics Seems like there are more posts about "Off topic posts" and also the off topic posts them selves on this list than ever before. While I enjoy OT post as much as anyone, I highly value this list for its on topic info. My idea is a voting system where after about 20 or so list member votes, via a link at the bottom of all of the posts, would cause the thread to be moved to another list or to block the topic entirely. This idea is just another way that this list could police itself. I have brought the idea up once before, and this will be the last time I bring it up. Thanks Mark W.
