A convincing piece! I am ambivalent about claps. Is it rude to clap once or just a few times? When I like a piece I try to clap the max, 50 times, but my computer is slow and sometimes I just give up. I wouldn't want the writer to think I am making a judgement!

I like to comment and receive comments, but it seems that only a handful of people ever really say anything. After reading this, I will apply your advice to all the pieces I like!

I'd like to write for Boomerang but have not had a reply to my request! Maybe I have been rejected as too old, I am actually a pre baby boomer!
