Comments on: A stupid idea, stupidly done http://blog.xcski.com/2007/04/30/a-stupid-idea-stupidly-done Everything I used to bore people on newsgroups and mailing lists with, now in one inconvenient place.

Like I need another reason to want to kill top-posters and overquoters and spammers. Hm, would I be able to read from the iPod, though, while sitting at the dentist’s office or whatever?
