Well, that's true. It's not just thoughts, either, at least 25% of the time I actually type stuff into the reply box and then change my mind and don't post it. I don't know how often other people do that, except Flint once mentioned that he does it all the time too. It takes me 30 minutes to write one little email, because I edit and edit until it's exactly the way I want. I've always been terrified of looking like an idiot, and when people praise me too much I start to think that they're actually just making fun of me.
