Am I the only one to spot the strong irony in the idea of a horroscope on the subject of reason?

Ash --

No, I spot it too. That's why I try to be memorable.

Also, I note that number ideas might lead to many, many posts with many, many words -- even if those words express the ideas very briefly.

"Number ideas"?

I meant "number of ideas." I tend to have ideas about many subjects. All other things being equal, I will say more than a person with more limited interests, even if both he and I are equally brief in expressing any given point.
