As for only reading 3-10 lines of every email, then I guess that not 
being a member would be fine with you. Put another way, "Freedom 
requires eternal vigilance". If you want to be a member, then you're 
gonna need to participate (be vigilant) -- and that means reading LOTS 
of email.

Excuses like this are simply ridiculous.
