I tend to think that it is because the people on the Info-C list and
Un*x related lists happen to be some of the most intelligent people on the
nets and perhaps the world.  When you say something they think about it,
take a puff on their pipes, grab a piece of pizza.....munch on it a bit
and then say...."Wait a sec....that cant be.....what about this...." and
so it goes....another 50 page message gets posted to the list, causing more
and more 50 page messages.  Personally I think it's great....I have learned
more in one year from the nets than I have learned in 5 or 6 years of classes
and best of all ---> the nets are friendly AND fun.....and you cant find
that in too many neighborhoods in the world....

Also it may have to do with the fact that Un*x people on these lists are
the type who spend all night writing a program on one terminal while
simultaneously (in the background? :-> ) eating a pizza....drinking a
beer.....and playing rogue!!! (at least that's what I do....)
