what about the 1,100+ members of THIS group? The traffic on

the

Me:
I'm a relatively new member of both lists, and I read the messages on 
the website, not through email.  I've quickly developed the habit of 
checking in a few times a day (generally during downtime at work, to 
take advantage of the faster connection speed) and heading to the 
message list.  I look at all of them, but generally if the subject 
line's not a thread I'm interested in, I click "Next" right away.  I 
only read the messages that apply to the threads I'm following, and 
even then I tend to skim or even skip the longer ones.  So no, 
although I do open every message in every thread, I don't even come 
close to reading all of them.
