Sorry couldn't resist. You're misunderstanding. People say "+1" because they agree with everything you say and the way you said it.
Calm down. This is a really stupid thing to be angry about. Sheesh. |

And--hey there it is, the "and"--the "Mods, feel free to move this thread" is not, obviously the OP's blessing, but rather their attempt to say: "I'm not sure if this goes here. Sorry if this in the wrong spot; I won't be butt hurt if this is moved" (because folks get upset about the silliest things, such as threads being moved to the appropriate sub-forum and what-not).
Is there a formula to figure time spent scrolling?
