And the Traffic Kept Rolling in From Every Side...

[jducoeur]

It is disconcerting, slightly distressing but rather amusing to realize that the Manche email list -- the mailing list for a single East Kingdom Order that I happen to be a member of -- is currently running traffic over twice as high as the entire Rialto was when I felt compelled to write Charlie and the SCA.

I remember vividly the way that people used to ask, "How do you have time to read all that?", and it never seemed to be a problem. However, it does seem that infoglut rises to fill one's capacity, no matter how great...

I'm neither in favor or opposed. I was proposing a ridiculous solution to real [though minor] problem for which I had no answer. I do agree that discussion is good. I find that there is a limit to the number of simultaneous comments that can still be useful. I haven't envisioned some way to reduce the traffic, yet keep the good aspects.

Ah, I understand now. Thank you for clarifying.
