The thread is different - but so are the times… to say the least. I’m proud of our bunch here - overall, we were able to conduct the best conversation we could - under very conflicted circumstances.

Sorry to hear you’re leaving. I’m sure everyone here would agree - you’re always welcome to come back, or come to visit. As LB used to say (probably paraphrasing) - it’s a conversation that goes on 24/7, and we all chime in as we feel.

It was a great place while it lasted.

I know what you mean. Part of the problem is just the times, but the main part is the lack of Lindy. The thread worked because it was the baby of a single person for whom the second-best pleasure in life was the thread and its maintenance.

I've ramped up my use of the ignore feature lately, but it's not enough. The guiding spirit here has left the building.
