They read it, they just choose to ignore it. It is for that reason that
I will usually only reply to a top-poster once and then just ignore
them, Suspiciously enough, these are the same individuals that fail to
RTFM or STFW before asking a simple question. Yes, we have all been
guilty of doing that once in awhile; however, some individuals abuse
the privilege.
