My post was kind of tongue-in-cheek... I saw two threads just this morning complaining about the topics being discussed on DU. I have seen people explain the feature ad nauseam over the years, but I guess many still do not know that it exists and/or how to use it!

(Ignore and trash thread come in handy, too!)
