[stylist] too much

[John J. Boyer]

There is no obligation to read every message. You can just look at the 
subject line, and if the message isn't of interest you can delete it or 
the whole thread. I monitor severral lists for pertinent messages. Iget 
hundreds of e-mails per day and usually read only a few.
