I know some people who deliberately write provocatively; their great joy is not debating their point with respondents, but counting up the number of postings that are generated..like notches on the bedpost, you know?
Will we really satisfy these people? And while these provocateurs generate a flurry of postings, many perfectly polite and genuine enquiries go unanswered or nearly so by comparison. And this ratio also satisfies some of these writers.
