Brothers,
I'm not addressing the issue of conducting a private debate via APO-L. I
will leave that argument for others.
I am merely writing to ask that, if you decide to post a 57 line, 800 word
message to this list, you have the courtesy to break it up into paragraphs.
Prargraphs help to break up a piece of writing into smaller, more
digestable chunks, so that the reader can actually absorb what you are
saying. If you write a single 800 word paragraph, people start getting
lost about 100 words in, and your message is diluted.
Thank you for your consideration for your fellow brothers.
YiLFS,
-packy
