I know that the AIM tell us that class E airspace traffic
advisories are given to VFR aircraft on a workload basis. However,
I seem to recall some of our controller friends saying that as
long as an aircraft is currently being given flight following the
controller must either advise traffic or cancel the flight
following. I'm looking for this type of language in the 7110 but
I'm not seeing it.

The controller is not required to call out all traffic, and may not
be able
to. The pilot should always assume that there may be traffic
nearby that
the
controller cannot point out. This is mentioned in the
pilot/controller glossary of the 7710 under Traffic Advisories:

"Traffic advisory service will be provided to the extent possible
depending on
higher priority duties of the controller or other limitations;
e.g., radar
limitations, volume of traffic, frequency congestion, or controller
workload.
Radar/ nonradar traffic advisories do not relieve the pilot of
his/her responsibility to see and avoid other aircraft. Pilots are
cautioned that
there are many times when the controller is not able to give
traffic advisories concerning all traffic in the aircraft's
proximity; in other words,
when a pilot requests or is receiving traffic advisories, he/she
should not
assume that all traffic will be issued."

It doesn't matter if your just flying a desk retard.

Oh come on now.

While not by any means a MX defender, if he answers a question with a
valid reference, that should be that and the insults reserved for
when he goes off into pontificate mode.

And well justified in Anthony's case.
