Your right it dosn't... The 1st Ammendment does however.. that dosn't mean that you have to listen.
I basicaly agree with the point that time and energy is limited.. I personaly choose to read only the articals on slashdot that catch my eye, and then I have them sorted by highest scores first.. Not because I disvalue the opinions of flamers.. I know that they are there, I just dont have time to read them.
You would be suprised by how much you could fit on a +9Gig harddrive.. I have a server that serves several CD's worth of information just off one 9 gig ide drive. if you have the money for it SCSI drives would give you better performance. Using a disk you don't have to wait for the cdrom's to spin up when you request information, because it's already 'cached' on the disks. anyway, that's my $0.02
