TV moves too fast...I don't understand...

Web discussions, also. It's fine to be spontaneous, but being vague, or thinking that your tone will spin the content in your readers' minds the way you think it will, isn't. People tend to write in their own personal shorthand online, which is great for individuality, but poor for understanding. Slow down. What did you mean by that, again? Read one of Plato's dialogues and see how slowly it moves, and how often Socrates will ask someone to back up and define a term they've used.
