Try it like this: is taking the time to write clearly
important? Form is part of writing clearly.
There are a lot of people posting messages these days, a lot
of people competing for attention. In situations like this,
I think it's entirely understandable why someone might adopt
a policy of, say, sending out a reminder notice once, and
then kill-filing incorrigable "offenders". Maybe I should ask
Randall Schwartz about his script.
And maybe the hard core net folks have this attitude because
they've thought about it for a long time.
(My apologies if this thread is starting to annoy some
folks, but sometimes meta-topics really *are* important, and
that's what the [OT] tag in the subject line is for...)
