I can choose or to run "yum update" or not; if I choose to do so, it's because 
I expect some benefit to me from doing so.

In fact, I've not done so because my FC system is currently not important

On the other hand, I - and many others - volunteer our time.

We have asked for people to _not_ post HTML to this list, for reasons that 
seem good to us.

I have no concerns about HTML between consenting adults, but I do not consent.
