I'm inclined to disagree, they've just been getting shorter. Here's an example from his most recent post:
I think I have concluded it is due to a need to use more words like, "adherence", "coherenence" and "inherence". I am curious to realize if these terms for point sets can be directly related in Kantianisms as Cantor DID try to explicity offer the world SOMETHING that he had thought Kant meant to have available in the life sciences that was already evident in the dead sciences. Now if anyone (apart from Brad) can explain to me what that actually means and, more importantly, how it relates to the real world I'd be very surprised. I also appreciate that this post will most likely trigger a response from the man himself (probably stretching to five long paragraphs)

Incidentally, I asked a question a while back in this post which kind of fell by the wayside. In short, does anyone know whether or not English is Brad's first language?

Darth Mal writes: Ok, it's me. I was able to decipher 2 of Brad's posts and it got me really excited. Seriously? Wow! That's two more than I've ever been able to decipher.
Darth Mal writes: I have no doubt that English is his first language. With all the big words that appear in his posts, I just don't see how someone speaking English as his second language could repeatedly comprehend them. I suppose so. Frankly, I have a hard enough time, and English is my first language. Still, this just leaves me scratching my head; if that's not it, then what? Does he just have a difficult time converting his thoughts to the written word? I'm actually rather curious as to how he speaks, in real life. Does he speak the way he writes? I wonder. It's not even necessarily the big words that I find confusing, sometimes it's simply the combination of the words. Even when I do understand the meanings of the individual words, I can never seem to comprehend the meaning of a sentence. Perhaps I'm just not smart enough?
