Using Twitter is an effective way to help a writer trim a thought to a more concise expression, but I don't know if such editing enhances clarity... or not. For example: in my notes was the following sentence -- "What is predominantly considered to be intelligence is sometimes merely the utilization of an excellent memory... no more than a regurgitation and a subsequent integration of supposed facts and not at all truly original thought."

I edited that thought to fit within Twitter's maximum word count... cut it down to: "What is considered intelligence is often merely usage of an excellent memory, a regurgitation of known facts and not truly original thought."

Now I am wondering which version is best. I seem to be in a decisional quandary. (Did I just coin a new word... decisional?)

In the beginning, a bunch of scientists created a huge machine capable of complex calculations and called it UNIVAC. Eager to test their invention, the makers asked it, "Is there a God?" There was a pause... Finally, the machine answered, "THERE IS NOW."
