<div>Imagine I'm standing in a room full of people. I stand on a chair and start shouting "Attnention everyone!! MAY I HAVE YOUR ATTENTION PLEASE". Within the first 5 seconds, most will be quiet. If I do this for 5 minutes, I'll shut the stragglers up too. Then I can speak and be heard. But we won't have much thruput if I spend 5 minutes to get everyone to shutup and then all I say is something short like "Lunch is ready".</div>

<div>We must be careful here that some well meaning individual doesn't extend this to some exaggerated length of time.<br clear="all">Wes<br>---<br>God help those who do not help themselves.<br><br><br></div>
