Admittedly, Twitter can be entertaining
on occasion, writes David Harsanyi, as it turns out that 140
characters offers a great chance to be misunderstood—and an even
greater chance one will expose his inner troglodyte. But as

system"—and considering e-mail is completely free and allows you
to form complete sentences, that's not exactly a ringing
endorsement.
