I understand the notion, and welcome you wholeheartedly to TL posting.

All thoughts are a contribution to this society ( yes even trolls) and you have now entered a symbiotic relationship with us, but fret not, as evolution has shown us a relationship of mutual benefit is more often than not a more successful one than a parasitic relationship.

I too am adept to the line of thinking that you adhere to, in which you do not reread posts before emitting them. i gained this habit in the 4th grade in the realization that it transmits the message I want more effectively than if i had proof read my writing. I, as you can all tell, give a huge emphasis on originality, i prefer my posts speak my emotions along with my messages as o posed to a robotic informative manner, as such i tend to rant..

i do not have the editing stigma though. And will edit mainly due to blatant misspellings, or to add post scripts.
One rule of editing i have is that, when it is done i do nothing to manipulate the idea presented in the original post ( yes even if I realize i made a glaring mistake I.E the discussion about proposition 8 where i thought ( wrongly so) that INcontrol was defending a point of view opposite to mine, and i proceeded to introduce a line of questioning which would have made him contradict himself, had i read his post correctly but alas i didn't.)

/end rant

Edit: changed so to do ( it's in bold (this is also one of the flaws of not proof reading))

Thanks for the warm welcome. I didn't even realize how much I might appreciate having an impact on what others think, or to evoke responses intended for me.



One of the things I find very cool about the internet is that it enables us to connect with people out there who actually understand exactly some of the things I am thinking. It is certainly encouraging to know we are not alone. I had a very stong sense of this feeling on TL a while back. It was a post talking about what kind of ideal dream home/environment we would want to live in. Someone mentioned living in a castle on a snowy mountain. I immediately knew that this person understood exactly many of the sentiments I had.
