    Bring me a man who has nothing to say; I would like to have a conversation with him.

    So was she. sorry, couldnt resist
  4. Time limit on editing?

    Ack. I pasted over the wrong thing. The one I got said 'The time limit to edit or delete your post has expired' or similar. Seems all good now, if i get that one again I'll convey. Tks!

  6. Time limit on editing?

    okay it worked. all i can guess is during first go it took a super long time trying to load - and the pop up was a default for the timed-out attempt. all good now, thanks!
  7. Time limit on editing?

    worked on topic post, will try others. including the one it failed on. thanks!
  8. Gravity Hills

    So then neither 'down' nor 'towards the center' aptly describes. You started this, you know, asking what is 'down'. And 'down' is what you get off a duck.
  9. Gravity Hills

    Which one would best describe the point of strongest pull?
  10. Gravity Hills

    Down - is where my face ends up when I trip and do random gravity checks.
  11. The Tent?

    dawei - this mobile version is wonderful, and easy to use, logical. Thank you! Tent arrangement nice, too. (-:

  13. Is the USA now a rogue state?

    That may be, but if/when SHTF - I'll ride with the Lakota, or the Crow. Joyously fierce. (-:
  14. London Bridge

    Thank you for that info, windwalker. Appreciated.
  15. I've learned that I'm not alone; in what I think, feel, see, know. For me, there is nothing more valuable than that.
  16. [DDJ Meaning] Chapter 13

    flowing hands, hello Yes, this is why Feng's translation is so special, imo. Others may be more accurate in translating this character or that - but, for me, it has always been what comes through the words chosen; and that which comes through is what reveals Li Ehr's intent. There are two compilations that facilitate this for me: Feng's, and yours. warm greetings
  17. Mair 7:4

    Cant speak to the Note... but the last paragraph has Laozi all over it. (-:
  18. Is the USA now a rogue state?

    I dont agree with your conclusions, but Im all for better relations. Thanks for your post!
  19. London Bridge

    You might be on to something there.
  20. Is the USA now a rogue state?

    Frankly, I dont know what all the fuss is about. All countries still in the Accord can still do it; just without the US footing the bill for their efforts... oh wait. Never mind.
  21. Mobile Version Questions

    Ahhh cool. Thanks!
  22. Mobile Version Questions

    Occasionally, scrolling through a thread, a blue line will appear between posts. Is this indicative of a hidden post? Or? Thanks! ps....title of this thread could be changed to Mobile Version Questions lol
  23. [DDJ Meaning] Chapter 14

    Good choice (-: From DDJ25: Man follows Earth. Earth follows heaven. Heaven follows the Tao. Tao follows tzujan.
  24. Alright. The ugliness is not in the opinion you hold - but that it overlays, like a perjorative blanket statement, to all members of a group. Statements like these: The vast majority of gay men arent smart enough to tie their own shoes. The vast majority of liberals arent smart enough to see the big picture. The vast majority of conservatives are war mongers. I'd type more but doing so would make me hurl. Undoubtedly, there are stupid gays, liberals and conservatives. But not all of them, and not even most of them. With all the screaming crap, from both sides, it can be hard to remember that the vast majority are not as stupid as others would have us believe. Not nearly. Maybe that is what is really wrong with what's going on: people not being seen as individuals, instead being derogatorily lumped into pre-judged groups. I thought you, likely having experienced the blunt end of that, rose above doing so. My words to you were harsh and I dont have a dog in this hunt, or a side in this topic, but it bows my neck when a whole group is denegrated in that manner from either side - and I dont give a fuck what color the blanket is. This battle (more out there than in here) is no longer about resolutions but instead about the game, strategy & tactics. Sad, that. I've said enough. If my point is still missed, so be it.
