I can think of lots of good reasons--they can pick up pointers on flirtation
from Larry Margolis and james dutton, learn more uses for bananas and 
fudge sauce, and read about people's lives that make them feel that 
they don't have it so bad after all.

Well, I'm not a good example of a typical lurker, since I managed to
hold onto lurker status for only about twenty minutes.  (And that's
only because it took me that long to get to a message that inspired
me to respond.)

I think emotions are often perceived as incomprehensiblebecause if we took 
the time and effort to comprehend our emotions, we'd find out things about 
ourselves that we didn't like.  Especially in the case of negative emotions, 
which are often rooted in selfishness and jealousy.  Perhaps subconsciously 
we know what we'd find if we looked hard enough, and so decide that we'd 
prefer that our emotions are incomprehensible.  

As far as uncontrollable, if nothing else they uncontrollable emotions can
provide convenient excuses for doing what we want.

And we post 100 articles a day of it too.

Here is some more silliness, from Will Cuppy of course.  The last bit
has some relevance to this group.

"Early man was much interested in Salamanders, but he couldn't write
 articles about them.  As soon as writing was invented, everybody
 rushed into print with the statement that Salamaders live in the fire
 and are incombustible.  The ancients used to notice Salamaders running
 out of bonfires built over their holes and drew the conclusion that
 they lived in the fire and were just going around the corner for a
 minute and would be right back.  The Salmander could not make such a
 mistake about a fellow creature, since his brain is only equiped for
 ordinary common sense.  To be as wrong as that you have to have a
 cerebral cortex and other refinements peculiar to the higher
 vertebrates. ... In spite of this new light on the subject, one still
 meets people who believe that Salamaders live in the fire, and they
 all want to argue.  That's why I seldom go out any more."

I am not single, but do read SOC.SINGLES sometimes.  This subject caught my
eye.

I met my wife on March 20, 1955.  We started dating one week later.  We
were engaged two weeks after that.  We married on July 8, 1955 and celebrated
our 37th anniversary this year.

It can happen!

That was before I knew that "suckup" means "compliment" (more or less) in

I find it interesting that usually after every major boink a few former
lurkers start posting to the net.  Even though lurkers don't post to the
net they still attend some of the boinks.
