^^ Yep. Ditto. A lot.

I often agree with Host, and pan, and Will, and many others. On social issues, I even agree with Ustwo a lot. But the posts are not communicated well.

Let me explain something that I *do* know a lot about:
People all have their own ways of communicating ideas. Obviously. But if you are aiming for anything other than a rant, you need to tailor your communications to appeal to and be well understood by the greatest amount of people. We're not dumb, we're *busy*. And we want to talk about this stuff as much as you do. But we can't when every response leads to a avalanche of information, my dear Host. Some of your opinions are a bit out there for me, but I'm mostly agreeing with you. But you are doing yourself, and your cause, and those that agree with you, a disservice by drowning us in information.

May I suggest a style?
And then quote the parts you've been bolding. If we need more, we'll go to to the links.

I want more people to get your information, Host. Most of the time, I think it's important. But you need to learn to communicate in a way that your audience can receive it. No, I don't want you to dumb down your posts, or treat us like we're infants. But to be an effective teacher, you have to modify your style.

It's that simple. Please know that I say this with a lot of affection. I read your stuff almost every day, along with most Politics threads...
