it's the quality of sentences that counts, not the quantity.

        I don't want to single anybody out, but there have been a whole slew of
        one sentence posts to PEN-L for what seems like weeks now. I understand
        that most fulltime professors look at listservs as a break from more
        serious work like writing articles that they can read to each other at
        annual conferences, but for the rest of us there is little to be learned
        from a single sentence. On some listservs with scholarly pretensions,
        like those at H-Humanities, moderators won't even allow such posts to
        reach the list.
