I second Mike Palij's post. If you don't want to read a long, carefully written post, then don't. No one should chastise a TIPSter who posts an academic, referenced post, because it's "too long."
I love the scholarly expertise that some of our more erudite TIPSters offer. I love that Allen Esterson and other select posters give us carefully considered and annotated posts. And we all know who they are! (I started to include the names of those whom I considered to be the best and brightest but decided I'd better not list them because I'd be sure to forget someone who deserved to make "My List." But when we get a post from "Them," our computers light up. Well, mine does. I know whose to skim and whose to read carefully. So, please keep 'em coming Allen et al.
