- I don 't particularly want to see a lot of clutter, either, but this is no
- different than the dozens of companies (including Apple) that regularly
- distribute press releases on the net. So it might be your interpretation of

- Besides, that's why god invented kill files. I'm not as worried about
- people posting stuff I don't like as I am people trying to decide for me
- what I ought to want to read...
