The Hollywood Entertainment District is running so quickly in the cold, pedestrians move quickly to avoid fast cars.  Twitter curbs are in the offing did you hear?

The #TwitterEffect is an expression I coined to demonstrate “step out and touch someone.”  Fans at ball games are more apt to “touch” sports figures and some celebrities more now due to having contacted or received a tweet from them.

The researchers have probably found this out by now.  The reverse is to curtail access and availability of twitter users.  This can be done by blocking and suspending accounts.

I remember in law school I did poorly on my first semester exams, many of us did.  The Property professor told us, “don’t measure your self-worth by your exam scores.”  I got a B in his class, but don’t remember his name.  He was a visiting professor from Duke University School of Law. I remember the ones who gave me D’s.

Likewise, when your twitter account is curtailed, or your free speech chilled, just remember this, twitter does not place limits on you that you do not place on yourself.  Not yet anyway [think Brave New World].

There are other ways to communicate, even in modern society, e.g. church, synagogue, mosque, “run Forrest run!” in the forest or park, telephone, hand-written letter and a stamp, pray to your Father.
