"simulated leatherette buttons" ??? okay . . . you win.

The way I heard it the tree does make a sound but it doesn't make a noise.

A sound doesn't have to be heard.

A noise (to be a noise) has to be heard.

So, it's not a "waste of time" that's all I wanted to know. It only takes a second or two to scan a screen for threads you want to read. Unless you're a slow reader, I guess.

I think the addition of AG'ers (and anyone) to this board is a good thing. Many probably agree now, and will in the future.

And I don't think there has been a lot of spamming going on. There have been threads that have dropped off the screen, but even those were efforts.

I think the difference is that AG'ers like to debate in their threads. People here may think they are arguments, tied to bad feelings; when really we've all be close message-board acquaintances for years, and this is how we roll. One thread we argue, the next we laugh, and the next advise each other. It's all fun.

It's even fun if there is a spammer that we can all gang up on, or ignore together.

Some people stay away from message boards due to all the foul language found in posts.

@glatt: My question was a hypoythetical: is less activity always better? Same thing, looked at from the other side. I agree with what you said, the board will find a balance, what is known in nature as homeostasis.

Oh well, guess I don't fit in here... maybe I should just move along, then. Buh-bye!

Just kidding, I'm stayin.
