sometimes - rarely, but often enough - you only respond when there is sufficient noise

People *do* respond.  Sometimes you/they don't have enough patience to
wait for it, don't expect instant responses.

Other people noticing isn't actually helping the original poster, if
*they* don't notice.  That's why you don't answer problems in a
different thread.

Don't send private replies to my address, the mailbox is ignored.  I
read messages from the public lists.
