I agree with Connie, and all you other laid back folk out there; yes, the
primary function of this network is to provide a forum for histotechnology,
but we are still humans and work is NOT the reason we are on this planet. 
I think the little bits and pieces of personality that shine through are
what makes e-communication more realistic.  And more fun.  I, for one,
enjoy it.  It makes me feel like I'm reading the words of real people, not
just some data on my computer screen.
If you don't want to read it, you CAN scroll through it!  
Cheers!
