This thread is perfect example of not needing to read any of the replies in order to answer the OP's question.

Like Bob, I’ll read the OP, then if it’s a long thread, I’ll go to the last page...if it intrigues me or I have an opinion to offer, I go through and read it all before sticking my foot down my throat.
