“If you can’t shoot your wad in 1,000 words, you’re in the wrong business”.

On the other hand, if you can't read more than 1000 words at a sitting, you may have ADD.

If I do, as an engineer with an M.S. (with a straight “A” average in grad school, BTW), things were just fine in the schoolhouse. The point here is at a greater than 3200 word count, posted on a staunchly conservative website, how much of it do you need to read to say “Yup, this guy’s got a point here - you’ve convinced me”?

Also, notice that he uses the “I” word 46 times. There’s a saying that goes “Everyone has at least one good book in them”, So - get an editor who will clean up the droning on and on, and publish it as a book.
