Hannah,

I only did that once.  Last week, I did hit the like button, which it the first thing I do prior to commenting, and when I started reading the post, it hit me that the post was pablum, so I moved on.  It would take me longer to figure out something nice to say...in that time, I could read several worthwhile posts.

Time has been a factor for me lately and sometimes I don't have time for comments although I read it.  I like to give them a nod if that's the case.  A girl has to sleep.  Only about 5 hours a night currently and I really can't give up any more for AR LOL
