Yup. I've seen that. Your idea meme-injections are devilishly clever! How's the plan to control the world going? You are usually quite open about such progress.

Yup; Sales of your book - 0. Result ignored. Average star rating of your posts - 1 out of 5. Result ignored. Like your "remarkable" results, you cherry-pick the ones that serve your purpose and discard/ignore the rest. If you want to be seen to have some integrity, you need to actually account for the negative results, not just erase them from your view.

Funny. I put an entire healthcare plan into 140 characters. The exercise of bringing your ideas into such a small space can be enlightening, and it's a fun intellectual challenge. But I know, a LOT of people DO NOT GET it, or understand why some people are so giddy about Twitter. For me it was a great way to use Usenet less. I can do a lot of my more fanciful stuff on Twitter now, and focus more on using Usenet only when absolutely necessary because I have no other way as good to push through brainstorming ideas and critiquing them. Though I wish I did. That's an ongoing project. I need a way to put ideas out there without pressure, and get negative feedback against them. It's that simple. For now Usenet is the place where that can be had. James Harris

Correct. You do almost no brainstorming there, and a great deal of pompous self-advertising. > That's an ongoing project.

You HATE negative feedback! Youve spent the last couple of weeks making that /abundantly/ clear! M -- Mark "No Nickname" Murray Notable nebbish, extreme generalist. |
