I stopped answering these. My reasons.

I am lazy. Do not consistently put in the effort to come up with an answer. I am not learning anything. Why?

Answers are not posted. I never know if I am right or wrong. I suppose I could input into the computer, but again, I am lazy.

What's the point of doing these again?

No answers, no commentary, no discussion, no recaps. barely even any views.

Like I wrote above, if others contributed .. if there were answers .. if there were commentaries ... if if if then I might learn something. As it is, I don't know why I bothered to answer at all.

JLee now chimes in: Bill, do you feed oats to your high horse? You want knowledge just spoon fed to you, but you are, by your own admission, so lazy that you can't even feed a position into a bot.

This is the same story I heard back in a past life when I was a math professor, and students couldn't understand why attending class every day, taking good notes, and doing the required homework wasn't enough to do well in a math class. "Why weren't the problems on the exam covered in class?"

One other thing, Bill... are you getting your money's worth for your annual subscription fee to access BGO?
