I'm very sorry, I had no intention of upsetting you. Please just ignore my posts if you do not enjoy reading them.

It's not a matter of not enjoying them, as I do find interest in what you have to say. But I have no desire to the initial long-ass post on a philosophical point that I'd only have a moderate interest in, in the first place. Surely what you have to say there can be summarized to a large extent. Or, pose an initial thought and then expand on it with responses to those who reply.

Perhaps this is somewhat hypocritical of me, as I tend to get lengthy about things that I am passionate about as well. But a lot of the topics on this site are rather 'deep'; and personally, I tend to get 'worn out' thinking too deeply about too many different things for too long. So when I come across something I'm only moderately interested in, and my mind is already getting full, I tend to pass it by.

Just my two cents.

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.
