I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I think you are right on track.

Only thing, I'd add is that I think the famous citizens is so out of date and not reflective of us at all. Either remove altogether or move to a "previously on the b.org site" type of FAQ.

Because books.

There are a bunch of things I'd suggest, but I need time to sit down and go through it a little more carefully. Maybe sometime later this week.

ita,

WX is going belly up - and this time it seems like it is is for good. I want to (re) start some discussions with you on whether such an interface like here can be created elsewhere and what kinds of fees might be expected. expect an email from profile addy.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Yikes. I just read that. The back end is more polished than last time you mentioned it, but I need to doublecheck.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Aw, man.

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

Rescue the Stors! Does anybody have them archived anywhere else? Dare I ask about having the threads archived?

I mean, I know the time comes you have to let things go, but--that's our history. Or, you know, pre-history.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I like it when something needs to be done, but someone already did it.
