joshg (Joshua Gagliardi):
Many people feel that a .plan file should be carefully crafted,
transmitting as much of the creator as is feasible without true interaction.
I disagree. I do not regard telephones as real interaction either. A
handshake says much more than telephone games ever will. Yes, I've heard of
desktop video-conferencing, but I want none of it. Yes, I will work with
computers the rest of my life, but I will try not to allow them to make me
mechanical. For a good counterpoint to the "computers = good" outlook, read
an article entitled "Scribble, Scribble; Eh, Mr. Toad?" which appeared as an
essay in Time Magazine several years ago.
I now step down off my soapbox. Please meet me. I'm not nearly so
overbearing in person.

therese (Therese):
Don't jump too high, and knock out the sun
Don't stray too far, out on your own
When you finally come knocking, there'll be nobody home
Nobody home
