Are one hundred words enough? Always
yes, maybe too much. For what needs to be said, really?
Engines for
saying more mean we say more. It is the human lot. A thousand stimuli
engender talk. Explain, cajole, defend, wrangle, correct, admonish,
complain, gossip. Myriad tech tools push further, deeper, wider,
endless. What Guttenberg wrought has engorged and flooded the earth,
making Noah's deluge a trickle of ink by comparison. We need an Ark.
What can save us from the constant lure, the thing to which I succumb
even now? Nothing but silence.
One hundred words, sometimes, is 100
too many.
