LJ Cuts? Please?

Ok.. first of all Flist... I'm no saint.  I do occasionally post and forget to cut so I don't leave 10,000 words flying free on your friends page... or on a rare occasion, I don't cut if I think the subject is important enough that it needs to be in the open, and shouldn't be skipped disinterestedly. This is very rare. Usually if I don't cut, I've forgotten... and if gently reminded, I'll go back and insert one.. or often I'll look at my own work and go HOLY CRAP I really need to use a cut on that. 

Not naming any names here, but some of my friends could really stand to do the same.  That doesn't mean I will necessarily bypass it just because you cut it, but if I'm in a hurry, it at least means I don't have to spend precious seconds scrolling two or three pages down to scan the next entry.  I do like to scan them before work in the morning but most I definitely don't have time to read until later. I just like to get the gist of what's going on with everyone.  I'll go back and read it later when I have time.  In the mean time, I know I'm not alone in saying I'd really appreciate a cut being used on those long posts. Thanks!
