        I've only had one thread. I suspect it will be the only one.

          Not in a very long time. I try to keep my (few) substative posts away from anything which other people might take seriously, and my posts on things that matter away from anything that I might intend seriously.
          Concrete, Abstract, or Squoingy?

            "Spirit merges with matter to sanctify the universe. Matter transcends to return to spirit. The interchangeability of matter and spirit means the starlit magic of the outermost life of our universe becomes the soul-light magic of the innermost life of our self." - Dennis Kucinich, candidate for the U. S. presidency
            "That’s the future of the Democratic Party: providing Republicans with a number of cute (but not that bright) comfort women." - Adam Yoshida, Canada's gift to the world

              Christianity: The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree...

                it depends on your definition of matters.

                I post about computer games. And to me, that matters.

                      If there was a factual basis for it.

                              Yesterday, when Pekka learned that I am, in fact, NOT a lesbian but a gay man. My post was substansive as this difference matters.

                                I wrote a very lengthy memo/email/note advocating a change in behavior for our compiler that's been bugging me for quite some time, that's now circulating around with great feedback. It required some hardcore research and structured arguments, they totally dig the status quo.
