not unless he was jesus christ come back to do miracles. 

Walking on water is harder than it looks and over rated.     But, turning water into wine, now thats something to celebrate!   

Walking on wine is much more fun. You're right.

Doesn't take much wine to keep me from walking or standing for that matter.

So much for the peace and quiet.

Indeed. Interesting that a site called intensity
is essentially run by someone who desires nothing
more than peace and quite.

the name really needs to change.

How about 'nappy time in kindergarten',
given the mollycoddling which the site
has moved to? Fits in with the paternal
dictatorship well, no?

Well, yes. Some people prefer clean water, too.

But then again some people prefer to drink from the septic tank after stirring it up over and over again.

Actually, this, I wonder about. At first I figured it was good, because webmonkeys who wanted nothing more than to stay out of drama would be more impartial than a site owner who gets too caught up in it. But I guess it's not possible to avoid drama entirely, no matter how little you care.

Dunc seems pretty stable as webmasters go, but both he and Odeon have their buttons.

So I go back to wondering about agreements between owners to step in for each other when shit happens.

They sure do. 

Everyone does though.

I'm not sure that's always possible. Let's take the current situation.
IF Ahayes seemed to be doing something which threatened the
site, in Dunc's opinion, moving on it immediately is important.

Then, afterwards, a discussion can involve more than just them.
Look, we all agonized over banning atomika, even though that was
absolutely necessary. Things seem to be changing.

I'm back.  We went to 3 office meetings while we were there, one of which I kept falling asleep throughout the presentation.  I went to the American Indian Museum, but didn't think much of it.  Overall it was a fun trip.

Just a personal theory. Trying to figure out how to minimize the damage done by conflicts.

I don't know if it would work or not, here or anywhere.

Basically, that if you have a small group of people who trust each other, they can operate as a flexible web, holding onto any member who flies too far afield, but not so rigidly that the member's freedom is violated. But I don't have enough data - I'm still at the stage of playing with the idea - so talking about it in too much detail will probably only mislead people about it.

The problem is that sometimes people don't even see their own
involvement.

There's so much to see in Washington.  I loved visiting there.

Did you see the Air and Space Museum or the Hope Diamond at the Smithsonian?

You make a good point, but  it only takes one shit stirrer or someone with no scruples to upset that ideal.  Humanity being what it is, there ain't no such place.  I2 is dying because of such shit stirrers and mind game players.  Somehow I doubt even Dunc or Odeon can stem the tide of the inevitable.  Sorry, but thats my opinion,...........I2 will be gone within a year.  I hope I'm wrong, but, it's up to you to prove me wrong.  Don't like that opinion..........too fucking bad.  The seeds of destruction are sown.
