Hello again, Doc! I don't mind dialoguing with you on this forum, although I doubt many (if any) are following this thread... so if at some point you feel prompted to switch to a more immediate and direct mode of electronic conversation, my email is (and you'll also find my labyrinthine website at that address). For now, I'm pleased that what seemed at first to be a rather impersonal and incoherent and massively fragmented engine for sharing experiential data and insights on a global level has at least yielded a measure of human exchange (even if only between you and me!) I'm not entirely convinced at this point that something as ambitious and anonymous as droppingknowledge.org can generate a meaningful synergy of viewpoints... we already have thousands, perhaps millions, of web forums covering an unimaginable variety of interests and all that seems to have resulted only in many lost and lonely souls spending an inordinate amount of time in cyberspace chatting with their own virtual shadows! Nevertheless,
I have acquired numerous friends on the internet over the last 8 years (that's when I first plugged in), most of which I have yet to meet in the flesh, but all of whom have impacted me in more ways than I may be aware. So your optimism about what might occur over time on this global forum may prove to be well-founded. I certainly hope so, in any case, or else why would I squander my time and energy logging in at least once a day and checking if somebody has submitted a response to anything I say?
