it save me a lot of browsing throughout the web

You are not the first person to tell me that but I figure that our 10-20 article ferrets will still produce 20-40 pieces a day to read. I also think Nadine's post a few minutes ago with the summary/critique and then a ref is a nice way to go (and not count against your quota I guess).

I do appreciate those posts, it save me a lot of browsing throughout the web.

I completely agree.

However, there's the proverbial fine line between vigorous article posting and a posting war. In the last several weeks we have gone well over that line.

I'm not certain FL's daily limit on the number of such posts is the best answer but let's see. I would hope the extra effort required to annotate posts, tell us why they are important, what portions of them are important, would both cut down the number of posts and give the rest of us an opportunity to respond to the portion of the post the poster cares most about.
