Why is it... the ones who have nothing worth reading
                       are the ones who use the most words 
                       from a Thesaurus to convey zilch?

One or more of us hope more than their reading comprehension improves, but I doubt it. Thanks for stopping by with your thoughts, Rico.

HA, Tom!!! Yes, and a big mouthful of it, but those who are most guilty never see themselves that way. They're either blind or too embarrassed to admit the truth. Thanks!

So, so true, Jenna. I don't have an answer for this, and sometimes I know I am guilty of wordiness, but at least I don't use Roget's! Glad you wrote this.

YOU perfectly understood the premise, Jan. This time I do NOT think the ladies protest too much!

Normally I would prefer the easy normal words that go straight to the heart or would you then peruse some ardency of temperament? Hugs anyway.

Victor, ardency should never be perused as a temperament. You misunderstand the premise.
