Now that I'm getting the hang of this, I'm wondering how to make a post that "sticks"?

I've "tossed" a few ideas (posts) out as fodder for commentary, but I'd like to post some ideas that can evolve as the critiques help to refine, advance, or invalidate them.

    It sometimes helps if one takes a clear position - but sometimes it doesn't.

    ummmm......sticks to what? the wall, in the manner of done [or is it not-yet-done?] pasta? the roof of the reader's metaphorical mind? and do you REALLY want that?

    I don't get #5, isn't there supposed to be a letter between A and C? Always thought so....

    serious: be yourself. In theory, you wouldn't be here if you weren't prepared to be, but !some people!.

    Enjoy!

    Let's see...

    1. Check my premises
    2. Ask questions vs. dictating
    3. Avoid "word salad"-ism
    4. Stick to the point
    5. Don't jump from A to C and expect to have the blanks filled in
    6. Use just enough humor to keep it fun

    What else am I missing?
