Let's be perfectly honest, the best way to get rid of unnecessary
overhead would be to ban e-mail, actually computers. The Internet is
there to solve problems one would not have without them.

Take the TB lists, perfectly self-referential and therefore useless to
everyone not using TB.

That is why I hate arguments on specifics, in this case "bandwidth".
It does not hold for me, my line is wide enough to download even the
notoriously big security patches from MS in a little more than 2
minutes - and this line doesn't cost me extra for time or traffic.

I still don't want X-Face or something similar. I also don't want
people to always be exposed to my face - or whatever I chose to put
in. I like the idea of the Rogues Gallery but even that is not used
"honestly". In my experience there'll always be clowns using Bart
faces, *LotR* characters, *Star Wars* images. I don't want to see
that.
