What I ntry to do when I come across an articlemthat seems relevant is to posy a lin to it, but also include a direct taster quoter of a paragraph or two.
I've got broadband, but with a relatively slow (64k) cable modem, and the long tghreads can take a fair old time.
I did that thing with the Raglan Road thread I was mentioning - started a part two, with links back and forth, and included the 20 posts or so in my initial post. Wouldn't you know, it's sinking away down the page with just my solitary post. Still I'm hoping the next tiome someone wants to talk about Raglan Road, maybe they'll do it via the part 2. Explorations can get further when they incorporate something from previous explorations.
