Let's throw preference out the window and speak to practicality for a minute. If you're reading nanog-l from a blackberry or mobile, and paying by the byte to do so, you're either an idiot or work for a company wealthy enough not to care (My opinion.) But, even blackberry users land at a laptop or workstation at some point. 9 times out of 10, nanog chatter isn't about life-and-death critical ops outages and the like, it's people having casual discussions. Most blackberry users are on-the-go types, running from meeting to meeting or site to site. The only reason I could see such a user reading nanog is because they're bored, have some downtime, or have a fervent need to look cool at Starbucks. Much like anything else, the world will not warp and bend to your preference. As a living organism, it's up to you to adapt to your environment. Just don't be like Randy and whiz in the pool because someone did something you didn't like and we'll all get along great. - billn
