I have a question....

	Why is it that the discussions I've been reading for
the past few days are responses about responses about responses.
(I think I saw 5 '>>>>>' in the last article I read.)   I have
a hard time following a discussion when the next response 
sometimes just picks at pieces of the last posting.  You know,
when a word like "loser" or "naive" is used and the person being
"summoned" feels the duty to respond?
	The discussion has been good, but I wish I didn't have
to read some articles again and again to get to the point or
opinions of the poster.
	I guess if you'd like to tell me I'm wrong about this,
please electronic-mail to me if you can.
