Could it be that we tend to notice lesser activity when we think that there

I thought I had better answer this - else it would be too ironic! I see you

Sometimes I don't reply because I am too afraid of top posting by mistake

I am not going to reply to this thread, either on the women issue or
the top-posting issue. :)
OK. I'll take the bait. I am a woman , once described by Udhay's as a '
determined lurker' .
The reason I lurk are
1. I've been on the list only for a few months.
2. Unless I have substance to add I don't weigh in .
