Why not?

Perhaps because some people have a need to express anger on these pages and some don't. You are the epitome of the former. I am among the latter. You can't logically conclude the absence of an emotional response from the absence of expression of that response in a particular venue.

Let me give you an example. Today is July 4. Every single American on this thread is feeling something warm and fuzzy today. A few will post some patriotic acknowledgement of the day. I won't be among them. You probably will. I will be among those thankful today for, among other things, the fact that all 272 members who have this thread bookmarked don't feel compelled to express their patriotic feelings here today and that I don't have to wade through them. I don't for a moment doubt that they feel them just because they haven't expressed them.
