I am surprised to read that all postings go to the archives.  Now, that's a good reason why me or a lot of others are not using it, I guess.  90% of the stuff there is not related to the posting, only the subject line is.  
I thought, only the relevant and worthwhile postings make it to the archives, not every crap.  
Personally, I delete most of the postings, except a few that is worth reading.  Takes only a minute.  I am not even bothered by the off topic stuff very much.  They come and go.  
But to put all the junk into the archives, IMO, is not only a waste of space but stupid.  
I thought, there are some guys who take care of that.  
Was I wrong?
