Writing that carries one person's marks, the way a fingertip does. Nobody else's would read quite the same.

Scanners: the post read like a fingerprint and an irisAdding machine: each scanner's number typed in and added; PRINT sends the totalPrintout: the score out of 100, higher is more like a personWriting by a person carries their marks the way a fingertip does: turns of phrase, rhythm and opinions that end and fork where only theirs do. The fingerprint scanner reads the post's ridges and sends its reading down its cable; the adding machine types in that number. Then the iris scanner reads the post's detail and sends its own; the machine types it in and adds it. Strongly one person: broken, forking ridges and an iris with crypts and a jagged ring, a pattern nobody else has. No one in particular: even rings and spokes, a template that could be anyone's. Only then is the big PRINT key pressed, and the printer prints the same total, large, on blue-bar paper, which is torn off for the next post. This is a counter-signal, a plain score out of 100: the higher it is, the more the post sounds like one real person, and the more it pulls a slop score down.
