While I read your first post I could sympathize to some degree, but I, 
like many others here, was not interested in reading a long-winded life 
history that was so prolix that it had to be spread out over four messages.

Some have suggested that this list is used for last chance appeals.  
Maybe so, but that is completely unofficial.  For that to work you need 
to get the point.  With excess verbiage you risk losing those who would 
be more inclined to give you support. 

In the outside world appeals courts do not go through all the minutiae 
of evidence, but are more inclined to look at whether in broad terms the 
rules have been unjustly applied.
