You cannot assume that someone has no interest just because they don't 
participate.  Some may have no interest.  Some may have little interest, 
but some may have personal reasons/situations which prevent 
participation.  One just does not know, and cannot make baseless 
assumptions.

Again, just because someone subscribes to nottingham doesn't mean they 
feel that it is better (or worse) than any other news group etc.  Some 
people subscribe to many groups, and for various personal reasons.
