The short answer: "I've got nothing to say but that's okay."
The longer answer: I have one but it's probably unwise to write it out.
As one member of his list has reminded me, I can be a very offensive

Yes, I *do* read most of the posts but am decreasing my consumption.
Posts from certain people I will always read. An increasing number I
have learned to delete unread. I don't need to read them to know what
they contain.
