I had always thought that I had a firm grasp on the language and an excellent ability to express myself - but in the world of internet forums I begin to think I'm  the weak link in that aspect...
Don't forget that many people here don't have English as a first language - so no matter how good your English, that may not help them!

I think one other factor here is that these threads do tend to pop up on many many different ocassions, each time with a slightly different twist to the question/comment/suggestion. So some people are kind of rehashing or restating their positions from last time the debate took place.

Of course last time we had one of those, the Critique Group was formed, so it's not all bad
