You've been around DAR long enough to know what gets in our way! Only 1 rule: no more than 50 words. Gracious. We DARians find it bordering on the impossible to get through "thank you," "please shut up" etc. in a paltry fifty words. I myself tend to use the same rule I use for sales proposals. Always assume that the customer will take all the proposals, throw them down a flight of stairs, and the one that makes it to the bottom wins. We deviously lengthen the proposals by using huge typeset, gigantic margins, any picture or diagram we can get our hands on whether relevant or not, blank pages between chapters, the woiks. This is learned behavior I believe, a natural culmination of the infamous "no less than 500 words" encountered from about third grade onward.
