Hello Vickie: The point of this e-communication list is NOT short and sweet. OTnow exists to spread thoughts, emotions and experiences among the International community of occupational therapy. Often, this takes the form of in-depth messages spread out over weeks by many different participants. From my perspective, the deeper and the more complex, the better. And for every reader not wanting to be involved lengthy messages there are many other readers who do.
Finally, I disagree with your statement that writing dissertations that no one reads is pointless. From my experience, putting complex thoughts and beliefs into sentences is a great way to organize information. And reading what you have written can make a tremendous difference in your understanding of the material and the ability to communicate the material. Take care, Ron ~~~~~ On 7/29/2002, Vickie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> said: VP> "Communicating directly", as ObeWan Kanobi suggested, email VP> communication is best done SHORT and SWEET.
