Can't they just filter your messages into a "to be deleted" folder?

Joe Alward:
No. Persons who respond to my posts will not be filtered. I would prefer
that certain readers have a way to avoid inadvertently reading things I've
said, and they appreciate that.
Note: I don't criticize those who do not wish to read anything I say. I do
the same thing when I see the names of certain syndicated columnists in
newspapers: I won't read what they have to say, ever. I long ago decided
that they were stupid; plus, they just make me angry. I know it's irrational,
but that's human nature, you know.
I'm sorry if the flag is an annoyance to you.
