Shhhhh... The old guy with the shotgun is telling us to get off his lawn. 😃

Seriously I can completely relate, I've been working non-stop since the normally silent list kind of kersploded all over the internet so I've been trying to keep up with everything thats going on here on my iPhone. You try reading a DN megapost about the K'kree and Ithklur on a screen thats the size of your thumb but you can't put it down because it's just to friggin awesome to put down.

I suppose I'm saying I feel your pain and shall endeavor to trim the repost fat in my replies.

Derek--

Thank you for the simultaneous compliment and friendly poke-in-the ribs. :-)

I keep feeling very self-concious about how long my posts are, but I
really just can't help it.

I believe that we're allowed to write a novella as a post but we're not permitted to quote the novella in the response. With a real keyboard I'm usually much more concise about clipping and reformatting because odd line breaks and such bring about a kind of obsessive compulsive response from me.
