Sorry - I just have to comment on this:

>>Just know that I am very aware of the fact that 95% of the >>people who read my posts don't understand what the heck >>I'm trying to share.

In EVERY writing class I ever sat in (more than I dare to remember but most notably at NYU), there was one fact I did make note of:

If your audience doesn't understand you, it's your fault!

It's the writer's responsibility to "make" the audience "understand/see/comprehend" the message. So by your own admission, you are failing. To me, your statement is a pure "assignment of blame" - they don't understand - where in reality it may just be that you do not get your point across in a convincing fashion.

Perhaps you might have to admit that your message is just another message in a world full of messages. Again, the wonderous aspect of this world is that it's neither right or wrong - it's just a matter of whether or not it fits in.

Regards,
