See the message I just posted. Yes, the additional repetitions make it 
take longer, but really it's not so hard to say, "Yep, that's already on 
my list of issues" and toss the repetitious message aside.

Yeah, again, that's me. Also see my recent message.

That said, I do wish it didn't take intervention on my part. I wish 
people would realize they're being repetitive. I wish people would stop 
responding to the repetition. (Neither is going to change my opinion of 
the consensus.) But then again, I also wish I had a pony.
