As to written posts, however, I think I am drawn to writing style, humor, and of course like-minded opinions.

It wouldn't occur to me to mind when reading a book, but then I settle down for an hour or more when I do that.

I don't mind long posts, as long as they're in bite size chunks.

I see both of your points.

As far as a book it's easy to do long paragraphs. We read in first person mostly and become a part of the story. On this internet chat we try to decipher a persons thinking and then make judgements based on the posts? I do.

To my 'minds eye' you are both nice and have a certain amount of humor and humility. Humility and humaness are a biggie with me.
