@DanielGilmanHQ Eloquently stated, Daniel. And worth noting that for all its and our flaws, the fundamental structural ontology of Twitter and the corresponding social ecology it peculiarly enables, remains "a possibility space" unparalleled in the history and reality of human interaction.

Odd, isn't it, that hypertext's structural ontology, and the concomitant
