Sometimes people are screaming for a package you have and meantime back
at the ranch, your mailbox is full of requests like "Post or mail me a copy"

After ten or fifteen of these requests, I like to post just to get the
people off of my back.

Only thing wrong with posting is it can take some time for r$ to repost
the thing back to the net ...
