Taking the time to go faster

["Peter F Brown" <peter@justbrown.net>]

All:
Trying to follow the flood of posts, with the time differences, low
bandwidths, travel, etc. is somewhat daunting, as is any attempt to butt in
on an exchange that seems well under way if not done-and-dusted, by the time
I get around to seeing it. On some days, my bandwidth on the road is just
wide and long enough to download the latest 50+ postings and don't have the
time to read up, let alone reply. I might be just a co-scribe, but I have
feelings too ;-)

Could I make a suggestion: don't reply to a posting upon which you have
already commented within a min 24 hour period. This way, we avoid endless
(however interesting) dialogues, open the timeframe while dear ol' Mother
Earth turns and sheds light on others, and gives us all pause for occasional
but much needed reflection.

Less is more...da di da...But seriously, sometimes you need to take the time
to get to results fast.
