( and try to keep it short for you ,       even if I get my hand smacked for tell'in )              my writing style , called " kmspeak " ( kiss < keep it simple stupid       > / morse ) is an uncommon style , used by a large number of people,       but you rarely run into them in this medium. ( we recognize each       other , thru it ) it's a combination of arpanet / fido /       morse ( as in morse code ) short hand. a style that people       that have 20 or 25+ years of " net " and ( in my case       40+ ) years of heavy morse code experience, use. for example ......       ( ha ha hah ) when I use the " ........ " . it represents the "       emphatic " emphasis pause that code people add to their text to       make a ( usually ) flat medium have intensified meaning       and individuality. the " short hand part " ( kiss ) is something       left ( added ? ) from the early days when " net " space / time       was very precious and " all " computer work was "       command line " , way before the advent of GUIs. if you       think in ( basically for my style , anyway ) " morse / command       line " it will make a lot more sense to you . there are unlimited       variations of this , tho .       ( ie: .... . = short conversation pause with period for light       emphasis for what was just said , . ........ = period pause, light       emphasis for what follows , ................. = dramatic emphasis       pause meaning a stronger emphasis or intention of something said )              just " rich texture " < g >                            k.....................
