Not exactly all - the current c.o.l. is almost a write-only group. I
(fanatic trn user) see it every day when I press '+': at least 80% of
the articles are alone and have no replies, so thread mode doesn't
help much.

Of the 150+ articles a day, I read perhaps 20 (and try to answer if
possible and necessary).
