Oliver Wendell Holmes made the quote hence why I posted that (to which turns out to be an bad link)

Well if there was no repercussions to shouting it, there wouldn't be much of an issue. The point of not being able to shout is the repercussions of what happens afterward.

Note what I just wrote. You said something, that I wanted to comment on, and I did. Now for you and everyone else who reads it, you can comment on it to (it's an example that I would like to make an point about this thread).
Its quite all right running out of room happens. Dont worry about it. I can remember what I wrote... I think lol. The quote is often miss quoted. I always hear it with the crowded part in there. I didn't know until I took a class that covered all these cases. I was surprised. And yes it doesnt matter if its crowded or not, just the fact that it is falsely shouted. Your point was made, even if it was miss quoted. Just as you are trying to make a point, that is what I was doing with my last post.

Isn't it much nicer when its a calm discussion.
