Same thing goes on here - I scan almost everything I get from
ClassicCmp, but when a thread's been down the rabbit hole for days and
the quoted text exceeds a visual page, I'm likely to take a VERY quick
look and delete. Or just delete....
I have a lot more information availble to me than I have time to view
it, much less process it. There's a fairly high level of triage going
on, which means that I certainly miss things that would be useful to me.
Can't help that; it's kind of "Welcome to Life Online".

How can you know if there are any new interesting threads unless you read
the forum (or at least the index) from time to time. And what happens if
a prevoulsy- boring thread drifts into an area you're interested in?
