I've been pondering the ways I respond to comments.
Something very quick is no problem, so a poll click is easy. Something that I really want to say to some one I know well is comparativly simple too. If I'm misunderstood, I can easily explain and not be worried.
Its the in between comments that are troublesome; the ones I want to get right, but are not quite sure if we use words the same way - never call an American's new pride and joy "really dinky" - the ones where I want to say something and really mean it, when I um and arr and never get around to posting for fear of getting it wrong.
And on another note entirely, I followed your links, went and bought some e-books, had a look round and only narrowly escaped buying "twilight". That could have put me off forever.
