Could it not be considered a valid point and a cleverly made one, concerning the ultimate futility of all public discussion boards.

Perhaps denoting the posters view that the value of discussion itself decreases in inverse proportion to the number of words written?

Is it not possible, in the philosophic context of the mobile world, that the symbolic representation of words by jumbled letters and pictures has made discussion redundant.  Possibly we are the ones out of step, the pokey-box generation understanding perfectly what a blank space denotes and its deeper significance?
