So read mod.sources if you don't like net.sources.  Followups in
net.sources are a desirable feature - unless everyone starts posting
bug-free-portable-everywhere-so-terrific-you-wouldn't-ask-questions
software, followups are needed.  I agree there is too much random
discussion here (viz. this article), but there was an attempt a while
back to separate net.sources and net.sources.wanted.  It failed, but
mod.sources developed.  If you used "rn", you could look at a list of
article titles, and you could automatically kill off discussions that
you thought were boring.
