I am a lurker for this simple reason: I am on digest, and often the
discussion has been completed or the question answered long before I would
have a chance to post. My workload is such that receiving 90+ posts a day
and reading them immediately would really cramp my style. ;^) Digests
make it much easier for me to read and learn when I have 2 seconds between
meetings.
Once in a great while, I will post a question. Like someone else said, I
get alot of valuable advice from other lurkers.
