I don’t know if you’ll see this down here in the grey pit, but Im sorry you won’t be coming anymore! I clutch but a single hope folded to my chest... If you are still within distant earshot, as one with those who have already wished you well and lamented your hegira outward, please add my own melancholy sigh to the

I wouldn’t have been one of them.

I wish I could have been there! Holy moly, that sounds like an experience!

You can drive it out with Its a Small World After All. Sorry. Sometimes the cure is worse than the disease.

I’d feel more comfortable if the person making The case against extending the copyright were anyone but Cory Doctorow. He gives away everything he writes for free.

On NPR there was a story about a 56-year-old man who was getting a master’s degree from George Washington University. At the same time, two of his children were also getting their master’s degrees, and a third was getting her bachelor’s, all from the same university as their father.

Your post makes me misty. I’m sorry for your loss.
