I'll sixth it. However, might I recommend we hold off the official discussion period until the middle of next week, after the F2F?
Sounds like a good idea. BTW--should I pinch-hit stompy while people are at F2F, like I did last year?
I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I'll close the thread.
Victor, I don't think as many stompies are gone as last year -- only Jon and DX.

If I only had a brain...
I did keep looking for the thread to be opened, but I never saw it. In any case, waiting till after the F2F is only right.

I'm not sure why it wasn't showing for you. I opened it right after ita "Bureaucracy 3: Oh, so now you want to be part of the SOLUTION?" May 20, 2004 7:37:41 pm PDT. Or perhaps during.

Fair enough. Offers still open if you ever need me to pitch in again.

It'll be called "NOW what do I watch?" and will be for discussion of what's worth watching in the first ME-free Fall.
I see absolutely no reason why such a topic deserves its own thread, but there's nothing wrong with putting it to a vote.

Nah, Kidding. I like "The Network is a Harsh Mistress"

Up with the sun
I also would prefer that we hold off on voting and discussion until next Tuesday/Wednesday or so.
Not sure how I feel about the proposed thread topic.

The holding off is a done deal. The thread is closed and the proposer agrees.
