Well, then it should be fairly easy to allocate blame. Assuming everyone's
posts are more or less equally vacuous and absent of worth we could just
measure the proportion of the grand agglomeration of empty verbiage each
participant is responsible for and arrange for executions in descending
order of magnitude.
However I think you're probably misinterpreting John a little. He looks
for specific things he might want to follow up on. He's not making a
judgement on the amount of pleasure and fun we p-listers may be garnering
from our little enterprise.
