> Print long emails. You'll actually read them.

It is working ?

2 comments
It does, big time for me. But then it would depend from person to person. I can be a restless person sometimes, to say it lightly. So I need to print out a long email to read it, and then I usually read it while walking and that works perfectly fine for me.
Why are you asking me? I'm just summarising the article to help save people time.
other people will read that question too..
I can't parse that. What question will other people read?

I summarised the article - if you want to know more, go read it - the justifications are there. I don't understand why people should ask me the questions.

OK, color me deeply confused. I provided a summary so people could decide whether they wanted to go and read the article. Then I get asked a question:

  Article> Print long emails. You'll actually read them.

Why ask me? I didn't write the article, I just read it and provided the bullet points. If you want to know more, go to the original. For one thing, I personally don't print long emails because I don't usually get long emails. For another, I'm not the original author.

So when I asked why I'm being asked the question, the reply comes:

  fgf>  other people will read that question too..
Well, I don't understand that comment. People will read what question?

So I say that, asking for clarification. And both comments get down-voted?

I just don't understand. Please, if someone can enlighten me on this issue I'd appreciate it.
