Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Yay! Somebody got it!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oh drat. I'll wake up tomorrow and find there are hundreds of new posts in a new topic.

Well, even if a Stompy was winched down from the flies with a magic thread-creating wand right now, there'd still be hundreds of posts, but at least I'd be posting in one of them....

Embrace the idea that we are the leaders we've been looking for. Grace Lee Boggs

It's funny. I was reading along, saw the mention of a new Natter, and went to set my profile with it, and there wasn't one there. I don't think I've ever been on the board for this in between time before. It's kind of sad, kind of exciting.

Alas, once again, no low numbers for me.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm here. Do we still need a new natter?

What is even happening?

Just a reminder: the Experimental TV threads should be closed today, when a stompy gets a moment.

Because books.
