Can I map trajectories of participation with more “on-point” use of language meaning? (How much more regular does speech get as you get to be a more central participant?)      Association between increasing regularity and: participation, karma, average upvotes, average number of responses. 

    Even when people tend to disagree with what you have to say? (As shown by sentiment analysis on responses)

Can I predict upvotes based on speech congruence? 

More and more, people will know what you are talking about. 

“All Concepts are Ad-Hoc Concepts”     Take up the challenge given in the last paragraph.
