You're waisting your time writing long accounts of events from your perspective, even if what you say has merit -- because (1) nobody will read them, and (2) your enemies will not change their minds.

It's like reading the Bible -- people pick only those verses that suit them, and ignore those that don't.

Practice some Laconic brevity. If you intend to address complex issues, make several posts. Use paragraph breaks (some people may gave astigmatism!). And please don't use "my brother said..." or "his friend knew..." that is garbage, hearsay, scuttlebutt, old wives' tales.

Just a friendly reminder.
