I wasn't going to respond to this, then I thought about it a bit.

Do you have any idea how insane that statement sounds?  If you mark bugs
as bogus and you don't expect anyone to question that action ... ?

By some theology, the definition of insanity is performing the same
action over and over and expecting a different result.  

If every time I closed a bug with no explanation, a bunch of people
jump on me about it, yet I continued to do so, I would _deserve_ the
assholes I had to deal with.

Or, I could just start putting a brief explanation in the bug report
and see if the increased communication led to improved relations with
the users.

But to keep on the same path and complain that it continues to produce
the same result ... that's insanity.
