There have been senseless threads before, and there's always one or two
people that demand the senseless thread be stopped, and these demands are
largely unsuccessful.

So I was just wondering why this demand actually worked.  Maybe it's because
you used 4 exclamation points.

Whatever the reason, Bravo on a job well done!!!!
