You don't sound like that yet. I was a little confused at first though. I read this blog via RSS in Google Reader and all I got was the link to the show info from Wikipedia. I was looking for a good 5 minutes before I linked directly here and figured it all out. Technology gone bad I guess!

Thanks for the laugh!

I don't really agree with the statement that removing reply all is the solution to the problem.

Frequently I find that requests for assistance, or information, are emailed to too many people to begin with. This results in 2, 3 even 10 people individually replying to the original author of the email, without any knowledge that someone, or even several people have already spent time answering the original author's question. Reply all simply lets everyone know that the question has been answered. Removing the person who answers a question's ability to reply to everyone on the original email simply guarantees that the question will be answered multiple times.

The real problem here is that people use distribution lists too much, or simply ask too many people a question at once. This is really the time waster.

As always, the problem is not the technology, it is the users of the technology.
