The extremism on this list never ceases to amaze!  Somebody says "I
think it would be better if you did X", and next thing you know this
interpreted as a MANDATE that one MUST do X, and triggers a flurry of
responses that say "you can't make me do X".  OF COURSE WE CAN'T.
Nobody's trying to.  Sheesh.

How is asking not to be blocked, turned into a demand that everyone read
every word of every message??  I'm only concerned about being blocked on
a sender basis.  At least give us a chance to get your attention!  What
motivation do I have to take my valuable time to compose a reply to
someone's questions if there's a chance they won't even see it?  The
suggestion that their reading time is more valuable than my writing time
is sheer hubris, IMO.

IMO, the time spent maintaining "kill files" would be much better spent
reading and learning something about stereo.
