Welcomer Posted July 6, 2020 Welcome to the Tao Bums. A wonderful forum to learn, discuss and cultivate. Below are 3 important sections: Our Rules, The Insult Policy and our 3 Foundations. Before you join click on [Reveal hidden contents] give them a read. Most of it boils down to being respectful. No name calling or trolling. Post as if your mom's looking over your shoulder. Discussion and arguments are what the board is about. Keep it civil, don't get personal. Don't be a troll or one issue zealot. We're here for good conversation and make some friends along the way, to be a community. Jump right in, start threads asking questions, look for interesting threads and post your (relevant) thoughts. For the first week you will be restricted to ten posts per day but after that you can post as much as you like. Also, until you’ve posted fifteen times in the forums, you’ll be a “Junior Bum” with somewhat restricted access and will be allowed only two private messages per day. Welcome. Problems, questions, answers.. evolve into other problems, questions, answers.. I don't know if it ever really ends. Other then we get used to it.

But, If you relax and just be, there is a lot of good stuff and people here. The thousands of past, new bums here, have run the gauntlet, from the extremely fantastical to the highly introverted. We tend to be very open and forgiving of human frailties and obnoxious strengths. Relax and be yourself here. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thelerner Posted July 7, 2020 (edited) I remember a story about a chemist. Late one night he had an enlightenment experience, where he felt the Oneness of the world and learned its deepest secret. In his ecstatic state he wrote it down before succumbing to bliss and sleep. He woke up the next morning and looked at the word he'd scribbled. It was Benzene.
