Binx:						
 (Waves to her sister, who is lurking here somewhere,
making shadow puppets on the wall).

I cant speak for all of the long time lurkers, just
myself. I joined this group at the beginning of this
year, so by definition Im still a newbie.  This is my
first post.  The reason I have never post before
(aside from a mild fear of the Grammar Gods and the
Punctuation Police) is the voyeur in me just likes to
watch. 

There have been many times when I wanted to respond to
someone, but then I would see that someone else had
already posted my thought and said it so much better
than I could have. Still, I am repeatedly amazed that
we are all reading the same books and finding so many
different interpretations of the text.

In another post about what posts she reads Abigail
says...
>there is a group of posters whose posts (I) read no
matter what the subject.

Me again:
Same here. And youre part of that group. :-)
