Er, yes, but is that what ShreeDevi meant by "reduce" ?  "Reduce" and "eliminate" are not the same, IMHO.  Is there any parameter that can be used to control LaTeX's verbosity, and if not, is it not possible to intercept LaTeX's calls to \message (or whatever mechanism it uses) and filter out those that are informative rather than warnings or errors ?
