I was trying to at least attempt to reply to a lot of posts this morning, but I am on my way out of town, going to Mt. Shasta for a few days to sit in the forest and stare at the mountain. I am typing as fast as I can, but I am obviously not going to finish, and if the lunch isn't packed in a few minutes I am going to be accused of being an internet addict with zero self control.
There are a lot of very civilized people discussing things they vehemently disagree about on this thread, and I'm really happy to see how polite we all stay for the most part. Terrence, I have to agree that your popping in to infer nasty things and then disappearing again is not cool here, okay?
You and Johnny have some interesting ideas, but you don't always seem to stop and at least carefully read what other people are saying, particularly the scientific refutations of your belief system. I enjoy both of you being here, but please tell Johnny for me that I think the reason the people who miss him here feel that way is because of his interesting, diabolic personality traits and his mood swings, and some of his ideas. We miss the chemistry of Johnny, not the Ayn Randian preaching per se. He is always welcome here, but we are not little people who want to be told what to think and believe!!
Anyway, have fun everyone!! I'll be back soon. |
