Personally, I have cut back on reading the list lately, partly because my  
unborn daughter keeps threatening to emerge two months early, but also  
because:

	* There's a lot of religious ranting going on these days.
	* I see too many echoes of comp.lang.elsewhere in certain responses.
	* A lot of smart people whose posts I found most interesting no longer  
seem to post.

I know that a lot of people are still on irc but I a) don't have the time  
and b) say the dumbest things when I don't get enough time to think :)
