Subject: [Tweeters] Post having no content?
I read tweeters via the daily digest. Not to pick on Dan R, but sometimes his posts (and some others' posts) within the digest come across to me as having no content (yet, sometimes, when someone has replied to such a post, the replying post shows the entire original post)
For example:

The article mentions Cooper Island, but it fails to mention George Divoky,
who spent 50 consecutive summers on this sandbar off Utqiagvik studying
climate change, though he wasn't really aware of it when he began. For more
on his work, check out his presentation here:

The Birds of Cooper Island, with George Divoky

and this wonderful film:
The Birdman of Cooper Island
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DNPwb-aZsE
The trailer is free, $3.99 to watch the film.

George predicted this outcome wrt the polar bears. At one point, he had to
be evacuated due to them.
He lives in Seattle.

Might anyone know what could be causing this (including something I might have inadvertently done) that I could rectify? 
I looked in the archive and it shows the same thing. This lessens the likelihood that this is due to something I did or that my mail platform does.
Thank you.
