Not to me.
I rather thought there were many groups here on Lugnet so that people
could tune in to their specific interest. Jon has tried to make an on
topic post to a group he doesn't subscribe to.
Having just subscribed to .general myself, he has my sympathy. I had to
wade through hundreds of posts before getting it under control.
(BTW, this isn't a defence of Jon, I just don't like getting lumped in
with generalisations. Perhaps he should have suggested posting the
answer to a group he *does* read)
