      Yes exactly. If anyone cares enough about the subject they’ll ask you to tell more.

      It’s a waste of your own time to type out everything you know in advance if no one cares or everyone already knows.

        Fair enough. I can see how I could save myself time and effort. However, I’ve read many long comments in the past that are very interesting. And, considering the 90-9-1 rule, I suppose this happens to other people too.
