I can't parse that. What question will other people read?

I summarised the article - if you want to know more, go read it - the justifications are there. I don't understand why people should ask me the questions.




OK, color me deeply confused. I provided a summary so people could decide whether they wanted to go and read the article. Then I get asked a question:

  Article> Print long emails. You'll actually read them.
  Pella> It is working ?
Why ask me? I didn't write the article, I just read it and provided the bullet points. If you want to know more, go to the original. For one thing, I personally don't print long emails because I don't usually get long emails. For another, I'm not the original author.

So when I asked why I'm being asked the question, the reply comes:

  fgf>  other people will read that question too..
Well, I don't understand that comment. People will read what question?

So I say that, asking for clarification. And both comments get down-voted?

I just don't understand. Please, if someone can enlighten me on this issue I'd appreciate it.
