Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Clarificationment? (plus a whine of my own)
Is it that you are reading posts from people get up and say
"today I'm going to post something ....... now what shall I post?"
Or is it sheer volume of small unenlightening posts?
Or is it the duplication of the same posts in several places which is annoying?

I personally like getting pointers to URLs, particularly from people
whose judgement I have come to trust. Nothing more than "hey I found this
interesting" is necessary to make a post worthwhile from such people.
The more interesting ones tend to be from people who don't post all that
frequently (IMO).

Something which irks me are posts which just represent a thinly veiled attempt
to be first with a breaking piece of news (which is usually to be found on the
home page of every news site, on every radio station and on every TV station).
I guess even these can morph into something substantive though.
And of course...I don't find it annoying when *I* do it :-)

And another thing ....... :-)
people who just want to be *read* but not do any *reading*.
"Look at me I'm provocative" and "Look at me I'm superior" gets dull after a few years (or seconds).

Believe those who are seeking the truth. Doubt those who find it.

Yeah... ME too.

No this is basically in a nutshell.
Pretty much.
Yep, that covered it.
Oh yeah, that too.
Err... what he said.
