Summarize, and give me the link, please. If I want to read the article, I'll click the link. Follow the tried and true method of LP.

Cya,

Just do what I do and read the first couple of sentences. If you don't like it, skip the rest of the paragraph.

Everyone has their own style and Jim is much busier with xmas around the corner so he's going the easy route. Nothing wrong with that. It isn't like anyone is holding a gun to your head and forcing you to read...

Cya,

Hey now...cut and paste is a time honored tradition within the website news biz, and Jim has even less time than I do for posting. I'd rather have the news there then nothing at all; plus I feel it helps balance me out, because sometimes I don't even sum it up, I talk about my dog or whatever. He keeps the site in harmony.

Just a gripe that should have been interpreted as a suggestion.

Anyway, I said please. :)

< sarcasm> Wow, never heard that gripe before! < /sarcasm>
Sorry, but it it true, I usualy do not have the time to do news like LP.
< dripping sarcasm> I know! maybe I could be like a few people at /. and add 1 semi-witty comment to the end of every story that they cut/paste from their email! < /dripping sarcasm>
