Arf!-Arf!! ::grin::

There haven't been very many posts from me lately. I've been extremely busy
in RL. Working on my songwriting with my new partner, writing poetry, etc.

I saw you on *that other group* awhile back. I'm beginning to get a feeling
those people are prejudiced against anyone who posts who "hasn't been
diagnosed" medically, or who isn't on drugs of some kind. I rarely post
there anymore. It was refreshing to see your post there, though. Have you
looked for Matsakis' book at the library yet?

That is probably AGC's finest quote! Reminds me of the one I made a while
back. I think Trax had it in her sig for a while. (Heh, can't even remember
it now)

Yes, Ping is psychically stopping everybody who he hasn't included as warriors
in his plan for world domination from reading his posts. Soon the select few
will recieve a message on AGC telling them what to do, and those who aren't
recieving Ping's posts will be unaware.

It means he doesn't know whether to trust you or not. Try sending him some
chocolates or a small green inanimate object.

Yeah, they kinda scared me off for a while.. they seemed almost vicious,
which you wouldn't expect coming from that sort of group. And when they
started that mailing list I noticed that they made sure to point out (in
capital letters, no less) that it was *only* for people who had been

I miss Trax. I know many people just couldn't stand her, because she
argued so much.. but she was quite a good friend of mine. And she was
the first person in the community I actually talked to.. before I even
started posting here, I went into the old Albia on Active Worlds, and
she was there, so I talked to her about the whole CelesteBT uproar that
was going on at the time... heh, that was *so* long ago now.

same, i liked her as well, never seemed to argue with me, and i never found
anything she had to say that clashed to strongly with my own thoughts on a
subject. i must admit that i have been spending way to much time in serious
groups like sci.environment and aus.politics so i tend to do all of my
arguing in htere now, and there are those nasty GM food threads that just
wont die in sci.environment to take care of, cant let the corporate stooges
spread their lies and PRopaganda dont let them tell you that the stuff is
safe. spit the tanited GM foods out i say, no more thalidomides.......

wow, lost in the mists of time is that one, i was still looking for a copy
of c1, my c1 world (the incredibly beautiful Arborium) is nearly finished
at last, i just have to make the tricky metamorphic object scripts, i have
to make flowers 2,24 turn themselves into fruit 2,25, after that i will
turn some wine into water and walk across the swimming pool of your
choice*1

active worlds, does anyone still play there?

Meh, no probs! I read the group every day. It reminds me there are people
who are even worse off than myself. People who have all my symptoms, but
who are under the sway of the arrogant medical profession and the corporate
drug dealers. Not for me, thanks.

It's called: "I Can't Get Over It: a handbook for trauma survivors", by
Aphrodite Matsakis (no, really!) <g>. It has all the standard questionaires
for PTSD diagnosis. (When I finished there was only one or two items that
weren't checked off.) I found it enormously helpful and especially with the
<<<stress>>> of what I'm going through now, building a fantastic, wonderful
relationship with my songwriting partner. (It's the really *good* stuff I
have trouble with. I know how to handle the awful stuff) =`)

I hope you can find it. And I hope it helps you like it helped me.

Even worse than a Reinder wearing purple across the street from a McDonald's in

I still stand my assertion that purple is a good colour for Reinder to wear. I
mean, if he wore infra-red clothes, you'd be able to see through them, and
think of the kind of panic that would cause.

Of course, worst of all would be a Reinder wearing purple *and* infrared
clothes across the street from a McDonalds in the Quartier Latin. Everyone
knows that purple and red simply do *not* go together.

Agreed. Be grateful for Reinder's non-invisible, non-red garments.

I think this is probably the first time I've felt the need to disagree with
you, Elizabeth. =`)
Depends on the red and depends on the purple. Some shades of each go
together in a very exciting way (the brighter the better).

No, just the though of someone that doesn't exist posting offends me. It
leaves me with the feeling that even after I die I still might be trapped
posting here...

Let's hope so. If he gets the combination wrong, the whole building will be
destroyed, along with the Convention of Dear Sweet Innocent Old Ladies. Come
