>I don't mind getting CC'd as long as the thread hasn't drifted to something else that I have no interest in. This often happens with Chatter stuff (not often in the technical forums). On the recent thread that started my ranting about this (and I won't say which one or who), I'm pretty sure it's not a selective CC ... it's a CC to everyone, regardless of the thread-drift.

Though a good deal is too strange to be believed, nothing is too strange to have happened.
- Thomas Hardy
Half the harm that is done in this world is due to people who want to feel important. They don't mean to do harm-- but the harm does not interest them. Or they do not see it, or they justify it because they are absorbed in the endless struggle to think well of themselves.
-- T. S. Eliot
Democracy is two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for lunch.
Liberty is a well-armed sheep contesting the vote.
- Ben Franklin
Pardon him, Theodotus. He is a barbarian, and thinks that the customs of his tribe and island are the laws of nature.
