And I didn't mind a long post, but I wasn't expecting a dissertation to follow.

I recently replied to a pretty long post, but I don't think it was in the running for the longest post ever because I can think of two longer posts that I not only read, but responded to point by painful point.

Did I miss something even longer just now or do I just have different memories?

I was curious, so I pasted it into Word.  Times New Roman, 10 point type, default margin settings:  4 pages, 3,227 words, 15,852 characters (without spaces), 19,192 characters (with spaces), 1 paragraph, 214 lines.

And, I'm still not entirely sure what s/he is trying to say.  Is this mountainguy's student?

(edit: "marin" is not a word.)
