I got another question (sorry for asking too much, newbie in job seeking) ...
I saw some sample cover letter on the web but most of them sort of tell grandpa stories, too lengthy.
I was thinking whether I can be more straighforward on that? As most HR people will have to go thru so many c-letters, can I just do them a favor?

Is it alright? I know I never see bullets and numbering on Cover letter ... but if it hits the target of what the HR wants to see ...
Just asking for opinion.
