The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

Because those weren't apologies for being rude.

It's a starting point, yes?

Thrive to spite them

A starting point would be to come over here and participate in the discussion about the problems she's causing.

I most sincerely doubt it. Especially given the timing of it.

An apology for something that had caused a kerfuffle, in a kerfuffle based thread? Yeah, maybe.

But maybe I'm too old-time online and cranky, and see it as the same as when some nutjob wanders into your living room. Because too little, too late, too bad.

That would be one starting place. Are you saying that this can't be another?

Is she subscribed to Bureaucracy? If not, she probably doesn't even know the discussion is taking place.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It's been mentioned to her several times, on board and (I think) in emails.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

More than one person has emailed her with links to this discussion (and mentioned doing so in this thread).

[edit: And, since B'cy is a sidebar thread, one doesn't have to be subscribed to see it. I'm not.]

I remember noticing it in one post, when (Kat?) first mentioned the possible warning. Didn't notice any other mentions of it at all, but then, I don't read Unamerican, and I've been skim boy. I assume that if anyone emailed her about it, they'll speak up.

But don't you have to be to have it come up when you hit Read New? Cuz' that's all I do, and probably lots of others.

People have emailed her. People have directly posted links in threads. People have bent over backwards. She knows this place is here. She's been here before.

I posted to her in Unamerican (3237), and linked her to the very start of the discussion. Others have also mentioned in this thread that they e-mailed her, but inasmuch as I am loathe to go back through the 300+ and apparently growing posts about her, you'll have to scroll to find out who did.
