Sorry you're annoyed.
Factoid: IWE has been down for some time, just as the world implodes.
Maybe you're not interested in 'politics', even while it has a vise-grip
on your ass -- your call; but as a former-IWE participant, you're hardly
a voter in 'policy' there, now, don't you think?
For now , temporarily -- this list IS micro-IWE, thanks entirely to the
kilowatts and other generosity of Peter.
Suck it up, learn to use delete, sulk - but you have no vote on its
management, I wot.
As to critique of Box's missives - -
While I find many 1s on the 0-10 scale, occasionally there's a 9 -- So
usually I have a peek, but that's just me.
(Comprehending Boxlish is also a constant exercise for grey cells,
creating new networks in the cilia 'twixt axons and other routers.)
Don't want to get early-onset of Alzheimers, now do we?
OK - killfile moi too. I can learn to live with that {sniff}
Sympathies also included re. your multiplexed activities, kindern and all.
Here's a cheery note, the text wrapped-around, for a Klein cartoon
permanently ensconced on my fridge:
Depicting someone with head pressed-flat onto shoulder ... via a whole
stack of 'things'
/So often
We fail to see
that the unrelenting,
sometimes even horrific,
pressures we live <small>under</small>
are actually pressures
that we created
by our own Desires
in the first
place/.
