It <em>is</em> really hard to get used to doing that, but that's a perfect analogy. (In fact, I just recently came across a teaching rule of thumb: give a class three full seconds to contemplate a question before answering it yourself.) Glad to help, Eyvonne!

Leaving loose ends is difficult; it's like a dissonant chord at the end of a song that doesn't resolve. Now that you've said it, I've noticed this fact in teaching also. If you comment too much, or don't let questions hang in the air for a bit, people don't respond because they believe you will just have the answer. Your comments are thoughtful and encouraging. Thanks for taking the time. Great responses, especially the one about not finishing the post. Leaving loose ends is difficult; it’s like a dissonant chord at the end of a song that doesn’t resolve.
