Well, let's not get too hasty with the "most" talk.  Llizard has
better access than I do.  We do not even retain alt posts for 24
hours.  So, I get anything received between about 2am and 5pm, 
Monday through Friday only.  I think I miss more posts than I actually
get to see.  (One of those little drawbacks to access from work.)
And deja news is a pain.

However, that doesn't alter the fact that people should read for a
few days (at least) before they post.
