While the reason for the sudden uptick in traffic may be sad, I want to
take advantage of the chance to remind people about the 20th Anniversary
of soc.bi YASBP on September 17 in NYC.

Because telling myself "oh maybe next year" has its flaws, and a big one
was just exposed.


(Would you believe that one month in 2000, there were over 4,000 posts to
this froup?)

*sigh* Blast and dungnation, I can't get off. The teleporter doesn't do
time travel, either. Not that I have it here.

This indeed.

Without having looked up the month in question, I'd guess 15% Harry Potter,
47% "Do judaism and christianity overlap anywhere apart from the letters
a,i,s",
23% fluff, 2% boltcutters and 1% "Serene's using up everybody's
buttsecks". ;)
