'the lurkers are always neutral,' goes the saying.

they may not feel or think neutrally at all, but i think it's
less than cautious to fill that silence with noise of any par-
ticular kind, particularly when doing so involves imposing a
sort of permanent war on them. for all anyone knows, they're
madly in love and can't tear themselves away from their beds.
you'll pardon me for saying that i hope so.
