Will you look at your mail more often if you get one new mail every 10
minutes, or do you expect your admins to react faster if you present

and thought about it and then figured out that more than one notification
to the same person per problem is what they need.

Considering the successes of the wars on alcohol, poverty, drugs and
terror, I think we should give some serious thought to declaring war
on peace.
