What you say is probably true for some people, but not for others.
For example, in the last few months, we've had FReepers join us after just moving into the area from NY and California. They may have wanted to come from their old location, but it was not practical. After their moves into the area, and when they see the thread, they may have read it more closely than when they were hundreds or thousands of miles away.
Also, there are new FReepers every week. They may not have seen a thread about the Walter Reed FReeps before.
Additionally, many long-time FReepers had not seen the threads and were surprised when they heard about the Walter Reed Pinko protests and FReeper counter-protests from CNSNews, Rush, Foxnews, and others in August. That surprise on the part of FReepers occurred despite the fact that we had been reporting on the Walter Reed events since last March. The point here is that FR is so big, there are so many threads, that one could go months without seeing our reports. That is especially true if one hasn't setup his or her FR interface to show "Activism/Chapters."
At any rate, the pleading is mainly for the benefit of FReepers who fall into those categories.
be a good example. Bring Fergie!!
JVB,
Bill did a study using logarithm graph charts. Plotted newbieness, DC proximity, Freeper schedules, primetime TV schedules and stuff like that.
