It is so depressing hearing Lebanon news these days. It's like
living groundhog day over and over. Damn them all.

Bassem,
I admire your perseverence! The old SCL members have stopped posting,
but you are like old faithful!

Hi Jo, thank you for your kind words.
Basically I see large value in scl as a delivery channel that
is independent of any commercial or centralized control. SCL
has no end. Commercial forums (Yahoo group, Google groups and
the like) come and go.
SCL also has a simple format. It is easy to archive communications.
It's nearly impossible to archive other forums.
I know that people get turned off by spam, but spam is transparent to
me since I use filters.
I think of SCL as my blog. If I have something to say, I say it on
SCL. It works for me. SCL is how I keep in touch with the Lebanese
community when everything else fails.

... and this morning, I decided to drop by :-) The situation in
Lebanon is depressing. I hear that the government will be born within
the next couple of days.

More like still born. The best one is that Kataeb doesn't want the labor ministry
because it is based in Dahieh. What have we become?
