Who cares?   Well, most enlightened folk care about reading opinions,
thoughts and relevent commentary.  This doesn't mean CAF-News is in
_a_position_of_authority_, it means it has an opinion that those
pondering the issue might want to consider.

And these opinions are articles written by netfolk just like
yourself.

Come on, John, you don't really think everybody who has an opinion
should just shut up, do you?
