# I've been around Usenet since before the Great Renaming, and as far
# as I can recall there have *always* been complaints about low
# signal-to-noise ratio. SNR keeps going down, and newsreading tools
# keep adjusting to become ever more selective, and folks keep reading.

Wasn't that one of the main reasons for news.answers and the growth of
FAQs ? Keeping the silly, asked a thousand times, questions in a place
people could/should look first in a hopes of raising the SNR ? :)
