Has anyone noticed?Programming in my opinion has alot more to it than just the 
coding side of it.  There are also going to be those discussions of what can be 
done, what is possible, what editors are out there.  It does at times get into 
alot more subjects than just Let I=3+4.  And since the blind are so dependant 
on so many other programs such as screen readers etc., it does at times take a 
bit of discussion to find out what can be done.  Not meant as a flame to the 
previous poster but just a hope that the coders will also see that there are 
alot more people involved in the programming side of things than just the 
people that write the code.

  Hi Ken,
  I noticed, and I struggle with what to yell at people about. I guess I figure 
people must be using editors for programming and it must be on topic. I'm sorry 
that bothers you. Does anyone else have strong feelings about this?

    Even with all the complaining about off topic we do more talking about 
editors, peoples software releases, Cell phones, and things not programming 
related than we do programming related.  It has gotten so bad that I am 
thinking of creating a rule that runs a spam filter that detects mails that 
have nothing to do with programming all though I am not sure I can catch all 
the garbage I just was amazed when I looked over the last weeks email from this 
list and saw how much really had to do with programming and how much had to do 
with other crap that had nothing to do with coding.

    I will probably get flamed but please folks think about it before you post 
if it has nothing to do with coding please don't post.  I try to answer emails 
that ask coding questions and I spend more time hitting the delete button than 
answering.  I think I missed a Java mail this last week because I deleted 
everything just to get rid of it.  I tried to find it in my delete mail and 
gave up after going through to much crap that had nothing to do with coding.

    Oh well I have some flooring to put in today so I am not even going to be 
around for people to flame me.  Of course if you do flame me I don't really 
care I will most likely add your email to the rest of the crap I have deleted 
this week.
