Yes, yes a thousand times yes. Some of the things you post seem like they might be interesting, but your posting style makes me care about the subject as much as you seem to....which isn't much. Crop it down, make links to the long stuff and just leave the good stuff...or the bait. Give us at least a line or two to let us know what's going on. I like the:link/quote(or article)/my 2 cents format.

It makes for a much easier to swallow OP (original post or original poster) and more likely to get responses.
