Yeah, but he hardly comes here, now does he?

It's your fault. I blame you.

 I think we should have a Wrongplanet-like TOS here, but have it only apply to people that personally attack Danlo. Then Danlo gets to bully people like on WP and we get the coup of having him here. Everyone's a winner.
good one.

and here is the kicker.  we dont ban so there is no enforcement.  but danlo's too stooopid.
Misunderstood.

peter, do you think feynmann may just have had a *ahem* slight touch of AS?

(i'm being more than a little ironic).

Your irony is confusing me.   :-\

Yes, I think it's quite likely, judging by his autobiography.  If asking for a map of a cat isn't an indicator, I don't know what is.

I started a thread at WP for recruitment purposes.  "Do you have any dark obsessions."  Everyone who replies in the affirmative should be invited.

My other technique is to do a search of terms like weapons, escorts, satan, etc., and find people who have used those terms.

But wouldn't you know it... most people who are invited don't bother to register.  I think we scare them.

Awesome, Shima. Just be careful to invite them via PM, not in the thread, or you'll just get banned.

Even a kid as obsessive as Alex probably doesn't bother to read every PM unless he has reason to be suspicious.  >:D
You'll never self-actualize the subconscious canopy of stardust with that attitude.

I can fix that, just let me find some dubious anime vampire pics for you...
Speaking of vampires, I'd much rather see a pic like this one I posted the other day:

i've got the james gleick biog, and the "surely you're joking, mr feynmann!" sort of autobiog - either of those the one you mean?

I read these two:

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393316041/104-5233924-7036769?v=glance&n=283155

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0393320928/ref=pd_bxgy_text_b/104-5233924-7036769?ie=UTF8

Can't remember why I read "surely you're joking"; autobiographies aren't usually my thing, but I must have been about 18 at the time, and I decided to buy the second autobiography after that (the stories that didn't make it into the first one).  The first one was the better of the two, but they're both good.

the gleick biog is rather telling, cos he's completely unaware of what he's describing, as it were, although i did think feynmann's description of his own inner thought processes in "surely you're jjoking" rather revealing.

While searching for a forum for people with anhedonia, I came across this site:
http://dmoz.org/Computers/Internet/On_the_Web/Message_Boards/
It is a long list of forums, and it lets you list a url, (just in case you want to publicize this site anywhere)

Out of curiosity I checked out the "Banned From Life" Forum - it's really intense.  MUCH more intense than here.  No holds barred.

I suggested katesmith because at the time she was banned from WP.

And apparently since Alex occasionally backslides and bans a couple of people, and everybody gets pissed, we could get membership by preying on the exiles of WP.

Anyway, I like katesmith.
And as always, these are simply my worthless opinions.
Reverence is fine, Sanctity is silly.
We're all fucked, it helps to remember that.
