Bruce, I think that this comes back to the perception versus reality
discussion you and I have had on more than one occasion :). You are
correct that we always, eventually reply but, until we do (especially
when it takes a long time) it appears as if people are being ignored.
I think a FAQ entry may actually be appropriate in this case.
Sincerely,
