I was writing to whomever considers such a rearrangement, and your
message did at first say that you "generally agree" with it.

It is unfortunate that so many messages on this list, including in
this thread, lately became so long and wordy that I cannot afford
reading more than their first page (my pages are 40-line long), and
consequently sometimes miss major points that are beyond that.  I'm
embarrassed to raise this issue, but I'd really ask people to try to
write more concisely and exercise will power to omit minor points.
Sorry if this sounds inappropriate, but it bugs me for quite some time
now.
