This is another disadvantage to the current system anonymous hate mongers
that we can't even get rid of. This lurker has been
spewing all kinds of stuff out tonight it seems. Dammit Dex, are you sure
you can't get onto talk city? :)

D'oh!

Did our 'concerned' acquaintance get worse after I left, Palladi? It
seemed for a while that I was getting through to him:
He drew a circle that kept me out,
A heretic, a thing to flout,
But Love and I had wit to win:
I drew a circle that took him in.
Not all, not even most, but *some* of these pests can be turned around
by a noble and dignified example. Let us turn the same face to them
that the Conscript Fathers did to the invading Gauls. Let's show them
what CIVILIZATION means, and what it is to be a part of something
deeper and more vast than the flurries and excitements of the moment.

Post scriptum: How about a text-based Chat room with Ignore feature?
The Internet was here long before multimedia and animated banner
advertisements. All we want to do is talk; do we really need the
commercials? (Juno's banner ads were consistently crashing my 386.
That's one reason I moved over to SW Bell.)

The Gauls slaughtered the Senators and burned the City.But Rome was already
200 years old and was able to come back.

p.s. Did you ever read the story of what decided them not to move the "city"

to somewhere else? It's in Livy. A grunt can get a chuckle out of it.
