Well, I think I do say that good one-liners are excellent, but most of them aren't. But I think I am projecting my own verbosity here. Even if I'm only replying to a single sentence, I will usually come up with three or four paragraphs, setting out what I think the writer means, what my starting point is, what my conclusion is, and why I think I have come to that conclusion.

I have no right to expect other people to do this, but I kind of object to the "I'm too busy to write more than one sentence" argument, because it's really "I'm too lazy to write more than one sentence". But, hey, why should people write any more than they want to, if they aren't being paid so to do?
