"So hopefully you will continue to be patience with our questioning."-What keeps me coming back is, frankly, how easy I am finding it to answer the questions being posed to me. I may be failing to communicate to the posers of questions, but I am certainly finding it easy to express my position to myself in all of this. Thus, whether others are having trouble following what I'm saying or not, my confidence that I am fundamentally coming from a sound position is only being confirmed.-It would be different if I found "curve balls" being thrown to me left and right that I'd never considered before, and I constantly found myself having to reconsider a new position, but that isn't what's happening. If anything, what is happening is that further clarification is needed on specific things I've said because I'm not writing a book here, but am reacting to specific questions that arise because there isn't enough space or time to present a fully fleshed out position. The very structure and limitations of a forum impose a certain "style" of "progressive disclosure" (to borrow a term from computer user interface design) in the expression of one's position.-Even as I'm writing, I realize that things are being unsaid that need to be said, and my hope is that what I've said will prompt questions and thus bring up new opportunities to flesh out the "holes."
