That evening, when I came to the Pavilion, I found Terri waiting there. Adams soon came in as well.
Pema Pera: Hi Terri!

Adams Rubble: Hi Pema
Pema Pera: Hi Adams
Pema Pera: Hi again, Terri
Terri Holrych: looks like i missed a lot
Terri Holrych: this is so sweet
Pema Pera: It’s a nice place, that Dakini built for us, don’t you think?
Terri Holrych: wow she is so talented
Pema Pera: she and Storm really know how to sculpt the area, in many ways
Terri Holrych: :)
Terri Holrych: i am practicing
Pema Pera: and Moon and Fael also have made great contributions
Terri Holrych: i built a litle thing
Terri Holrych: just for practice
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: hi there

Adams Rubble: Hi Fred
Terri Holrych: for dharma
Pema Pera: Hi Fred!
Terri Holrych: not nearly this sweet tho
Terri Holrych: hi fried
Terri Holrych: :)
Pema Pera: It’s a matter of having the time and energy and interest to invest in learning the skills and practicing them. I’d love to learn — just don’t have the time right now
Terri Holrych: i stay up all nite
Pema Pera: It must be so nice to have all those skills in your fingertips, so to speak
Terri Holrych: lol when i start building a i cant stop
Terri Holrych: i mean its addictive
Terri Holrych: or zenlike
Terri Holrych: i dunno which
Pia Iger: Hi, all.

Pema Pera: Greetings, Dakini!
Terri Holrych: :)
Dakini Rhode: may i join you for a few minutes?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: hi dakini
Pema Pera: what a question!
Pema Pera: haha
Dakini Rhode: haha well the question was about the “few minutes”
Pema Pera: you should have heard all the praise you have gotten about this building, the last 24 hours
Terri Holrych: its so pretty
Dakini Rhode: oh my don’t tell me
Terri Holrych: u are so talented
Pema Pera: we are (reluctantly) willing to let you go any time Dakini!

Terri Holrych: haha
Terri Holrych: :)
FX1-Black V1.0 (High Prim)_v4: Must clear coffee cups before making another.
Dakini Rhode: i’m just incredibly tired tonight, but wanted to say hi
Terri Holrych: hi
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: heh. i just woke up from a nap…
Dakini Rhode: hi all around
Pia Iger: I know what you mean.
Terri Holrych: well i’ll send u some energy
Dakini Rhode: meh. I’ve been running from meeting to meeting all day
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: terri:- i could guess, or wait for the blog post, but what were you talking about practicing?
Adams Rubble: It’s been a long day in SL
Terri Holrych: :(
Terri Holrych: what kind of meetings
Dakini Rhode: here, there, and everywhere
Dakini Rhode: RL / SL
The conversation moved to SL activities.
Terri Holrych: i was practicing moving dirt on SL
Terri Holrych: i learned how to dig a hole
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: great! I am prety sure I don’t have one of those in my inventory
Pia Iger: what for?
Terri Holrych: to put a lake there
Terri Holrych: but it looks weird
Terri Holrych: lol
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: oh. i was happy w/ the hole
Terri Holrych: um ok
Terri Holrych: i love the windchimes
Terri Holrych: they are so pretty
Dakini Rhode: we have Adams to thank for those
Terri Holrych: thanks Adams
Windchime Bronze 12: Friedrich Ochsenhorn picked the option ‘Sounds’.
Windchime Bronze 12: Friedrich Ochsenhorn picked the option ‘Sound 1′.
FX1-Black V1.0 (High Prim)_v4: Must clear coffee cups before making another.
Adams Rubble: :)
FX1-Black V1.0 (High Prim)_v4 whispers: Coffee Machine ready for use.
Terri Holrych: haha
Terri Holrych: wow
And on to avatars.
Dakini Rhode: have ppl seen the new default avatars?
Pema Pera: ?
Adams Rubble: I don;t know what they are
Terri Holrych: i havent tried them on
Windchime Bronze 12: Friedrich Ochsenhorn picked the option ‘Volume’.
Terri Holrych: but i read the blog
Windchime Bronze 12: Friedrich Ochsenhorn picked the option ‘100%’.
Dakini Rhode: when we were new, we could choose from a few primitive avatars for our look
Terri Holrych: is this one i have ok
Dakini Rhode: SL just came out with a lot of attractive default avatars
Dakini Rhode: they should all be in our library
Terri Holrych: i got a custom skin
Dakini Rhode: under “clothing”
Pia Iger: yes. I read it on website too.
Terri Holrych: i have so many outfits already
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: as someone who hasn’t modified my apperance much, i must say its quite weird running into a doppleganger
Terri Holrych: that i made
Pema Pera: it works retroactivly?
Pema Pera: so we get it into our libraries too?
Adams Rubble: Hi Taigh
Taigh String: hello
Terri Holrych: what
Pema Pera: Hi Taigh
Pema Pera: come join us
Pema Pera: Have you been here before?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: enough to make me want to spend some time in front of the mirror
Pia Iger: Hi, Taigh.
Terri Holrych: hi taigh
Taigh String: hello everyone
Taigh String: namaste
Taigh String: :)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: Hey!
Terri Holrych: whats a doplleganger again
Dakini Rhode: hello Taigh!
Taigh String: hello
Taigh had joined us, and I pointed to the PaB blog.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: a clone
Pema Pera: Taigh, is this your first time here in this group?
Taigh String: yes
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: (i spelled it wrong though)
Taigh String: I have been traveling
Taigh String: and am weary
Pema Pera: this is a Play as Being meeting, http://playasbeing.wordpress.com/
Pema Pera: is our web site
Terri Holrych: where did u go taigh
Pema Pera: so if you like to know more details, it’s all there :)
Taigh String: thank you pema
Terri Holrych: gee i wouldnt want to be a clone
Pema Pera: we get together here four times a day
Terri Holrych: lol
Taigh String: well I am new here, to 2nd life, and have been wandering aimlessly
Pema Pera: 1 and 7, am and pm
Terri Holrych: aww i am new too
Pema Pera: and we don’t use voice here normally
Taigh String: thats fine
Pema Pera: oldfashioned typing :)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: *doppleganger. I actually have a unique name in RL, which is catching on with kids, and I am starting to hear it more often, not directed to me
Taigh String: i needed solace, it sounded peaceful
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: a little similar to running into another default avatar, for me
Terri Holrych: well i spent 2000 lindens on the skin and shape
Terri Holrych: that i have
Terri Holrych: lol
Terri Holrych: greedy of me i know
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: looks good
Terri Holrych: thanks
Terri Holrych: i am so vain
Terri Holrych: hey taigh
Taigh String: yes
Terri Holrych: where ya goin
Terri Holrych: ;p
Taigh String: looking around
Taigh String: :)
Terri Holrych: okee
Pema Pera: bye Taigh!
Taigh was about to leave, but had another question about the area.
Terri Holrych: i thought maye i skeered ya
Taigh String: who is the person guarding the entrance?
Terri Holrych: lol
Taigh String: no not at all, you all seem very nice
Terri Holrych: guarding?
Taigh String: well, standing there
Terri Holrych: where
Taigh String: where I transported, near the statue
Pema Pera: btw, Taigh, do you mind if we include these conversations in our blog — just wanna check
Taigh String: oh, I suppose thats fine
Taigh String: am I interrupting
Pema Pera: thanks :)
Taigh String: ?
Pema Pera: not at all
Pema Pera: people always coming and going here
Dakini Rhode: not sure where you transported, Taigh
Terri Holrych: it was prolly just someone adoring the statue
Taigh String: near the statue, over there
Terri Holrych: the giant buddha?
Dakini Rhode: the kuan yin statue?
Taigh String: yes
Terri Holrych: o
Dakini Rhode: then, which buddha?
Dakini Rhode: hmmm
Taigh String: hmm, well Im not sure, I guess there is more than one
Dakini Rhode: anyway, no guards…
Terri Holrych: there is one dot on my map not in our group
Taigh String: I came right over when I saw there was a group
Taigh String: I thought you might be meditating
Taigh String: :)
Terri Holrych: probably just chilling over there
Dakini Rhode: we meditate at the zendo every day
Dakini Rhode: at 6PM
Taigh String: Im going to look around…
Dakini Rhode: near where that one dot is
Taigh String: familiarize
Dakini Rhode: kk
Taigh String: yes, thats where I came in
Dakini Rhode: ah!
Terri Holrych: ttyl
The talk then went into various directions.
Dakini Rhode: has a bit of a cough
Terri Holrych: oh i hope u feel better
Dakini Rhode: why not to use voice…
Dakini Rhode: Taigh does…
Dakini Rhode: not i
Terri Holrych: oh i couldnt hear him i have mine turned off
Terri Holrych: i only turn it on for lectures or stuff
Terri Holrych: there is a buddhist monk on SL now
Terri Holrych: Kusala
Terri Holrych: he’s neat
Terri Holrych: fried is ur face black or am i dreaming
Pia Iger: did you talk with him?
Terri Holrych: yes
Terri Holrych: he invited me into his group
Terri Holrych: and took me to his virtual temple with some other students
Terri Holrych: and gives notecards every day
Terri Holrych: called the daily dharma
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i have a beard…
Terri Holrych: usually from the dhamma pada
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: which, i learned is a tatoo on this skin that i can’t easily change
Terri Holrych: oh fried ur whole head looks black but its prolly my year old laptop
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: blah. one of these weeks i’ll manage to shave.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i cna’t believe i have to worry about that here!
Terri Holrych: rofl
Terri Holrych: LMAO
Terri Holrych: goes right along with Pemas paper
Terri Holrych: LOL
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: well, thank dakini for the incense too - i am sure i stink too
Solo walked in.
Terri Holrych: hi solobill
Solobill Laville: Hello all
Terri Holrych: omg fried
Adams Rubble: Hello Solobill
Pema Pera: Hi Solo!
Solobill Laville: :)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: Hey!
Pia Iger: Hi, Solo
Pia Iger: what are the blue/white spiral outside?
Pema Pera: Storm is marking off river flow
Terri Holrych: cute things
Pema Pera: where the river will be
Pema Pera: to change the landscape accordingly
Terri Holrych: ooh
Pia Iger: oh.
Pema Pera: he created the moat around the pavilion yesterday
Pia Iger: something to look forward too. I like the moat
Pema Pera: so now our bridges have a meaning :)
Dakini Rhode: if you will excuse me…. i’m very sorry i cannot keep my eyes open tonite
Terri Holrych: i thought they were those things in shinto shrines that hang from trees
Taigh String: lots of interesting things here
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: surveying? i would love to watch him build someday
Solobill Laville: G’night, D!
Dakini Rhode: nite :-)
Adams Rubble: Bye Dakini, Have a good sleep :)
Pia Iger: night, D.
Dakini Rhode: ty
Pema Pera: Night, Dakini!
Terri Holrych: gnite dakini
Dakini took off, and so did Taigh.
Taigh String: thank you all for your hospitality
Terri Holrych: :)
Pia Iger: Adams, you spent whole day in SL?
Adams Rubble: Not the whole day…off and on
Terri Holrych: i do it all the time while i work my other job
Terri Holrych: im baaadddlllyy addicted
Pema Pera: I have to leave too
Terri Holrych: but i would die of boredome
Pia Iger: I only can do it a few hours.
Terri Holrych: ok
Pema Pera: good seeing you all here in this new place!
Solobill Laville: Pema, I think I have the log you’re looking for
Adams Rubble: bye Pema
Terri Holrych: loves it Pema
Terri Holrych: peace
Pema Pera: wonderful!
We talk about making chat logs
Solobill Laville: I just dont’ know how to find old logs…
Solobill Laville: anyone?
Terri Holrych: im going to explore
Terri Holrych: logs?
Pema Pera: do you have chat log saving enabled by default?
Solobill Laville: Chat logs / chat histories
Pema Pera: into one big file?
Solobill Laville: THAT, is a good question…
Terri Holrych: oh i didnt know we could save chat
Solobill Laville: dunno
Solobill Laville: :)
Solobill Laville: I can look on-line for a tutorial
Pia Iger: he is kidding
Terri Holrych: or u could copy and paste
Terri Holrych: ?
Pema Pera: if you go to preferences, Solo
Pema Pera: and then to communication,
Pema Pera: can you open that window?
Solobill Laville: yep
Pema Pera: it says in the middle, on a blue button “change path”
Pema Pera: do you see that?
Solobill Laville: yep
Pema Pera: Follow that is the name of the file in which all your chats are logged
Solobill Laville: Wow!!!
Pema Pera: if you open that file — don’t have to do ir right now
Terri Holrych: kool
Solobill Laville: OK, will do
Terri Holrych: now i can log too
Pema Pera: then you get everything you have ever said since you started logging
Solobill Laville: Jeepers!
Pema Pera: and you can select the Tuesday 1 pm log
Pema Pera: part
Terri Holrych: could be incriminating LOL
Pema Pera: I strongly suggest that once a month or so you rename the file
Terri Holrych: kool
Solobill Laville: Uh, yes, good advice
Pema Pera: so that if you accidentily delete it
Pema Pera: you don’t lose your whole SL history :)
Solobill Laville: Thanks for the tip!
Terri Holrych: thanks
Pema Pera: as soon as you rename it a new file will be created with the same old name
Pema Pera: but better to do this renaming in between SL sessions, not during
Pema Pera: okay, bye all!
Solobill Laville: OK
Terri Holrych: peace yall
Solobill Laville: Bye
Adams Rubble: bye
Terri Holrych: bye
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: cya
Pia Iger: bye.
Pema Pera: oh!
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: saving logs w/ timestamps is probably a good idea too
Pema Pera: can someone send me the log of the rest of teh session?
Pia Iger: sure.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: they are easy to remove, but impossible to reconstruct not saved initially
Pema Pera: Thank you, Pia!
Pia Iger: true.
I left, and later Pia would send me the rest of the chat log. The comments are mine.
Solobill Laville: Thanks for the lm to Assisi Adams
Solobill Laville: it was a great field trip!
Adams Rubble: you are welcome-did you all go last night?
Solobill Laville: oh, yeah
Adams Rubble: It is quite a reconstruction
Solobill Laville: We have a great pic in the cathedral for the log
Adams Rubble: I can’t wait to see
Solobill Laville: ;)
Pia Iger: I enjoy the trip with group.
Solobill Laville: It was a first: PaB field trip!
Adams Rubble: :)
Pia Iger: Yeeeh.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: did you have to get permission slips signed?
Adams Rubble: hehe
Solobill Laville: I did
Adams Rubble: hehe
Pia Iger: ??
Pia Iger: who sign?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: (kidding - you need them for all school field trips in the US)
Solobill Laville: yes :)
Solobill Laville: But I did bring my backpack!
Pia Iger: oh. even went with teacher?
Solobill Laville: yep
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: yes. we are a very litigious society…
Solobill Laville: excacltly what I was typing, Fred
Solobill Laville: too true, sadly
From school children’s trips back to Adams’ blog, and onto twitter.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: so Adams, i was peeking at your blog - you’re working hard!
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: very impressive
Adams Rubble: Thanks
Adams Rubble: I have spurts and stops
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: how do you take notes? do you carry around a small notebook and pen everywhere?
Adams Rubble: No I use the computer…three computers :)
Pia Iger: interesting.
Adams Rubble: one here, one there and one someplace else :)
Pia Iger: so you can write everywhere.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: it has occured to me that we are culturally recreating twitter
Adams Rubble: :)
Pia Iger: twitter?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: a popular web services here in the us, where people share short, stream of consciousness blurbs with the world
Adams Rubble: My blof IS a bit like stream of consciousness
Adams Rubble: blog
Pia Iger: Fred, do you do research of on-line behaviors?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: investigative research ;-)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: sorta. i dabble.
The conversation went to the guide lines that Fred had mentioned in the guardian email group.
Pia Iger: I like your points of our meeting guidelines, etc.
Pia Iger: I think it would be better for us to have some structure in meetings.
Solobill Laville: I wonder…
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: oh, thanks. i didn’t personally develop those. the peer support group Icarus worked hard on them
Solobill Laville: Sometimes I think yes, more structure
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: they aren’t meant to be formal, just an easy way for the faciliator to redirect the meeting if it starts going astray
Solobill Laville: But it is also nice to follow the threads we create here
Adams Rubble: I didn;t they were so much structure as guidelines for inclusion and sensitivity to participants
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: thanks. yeah, they weren’t agendas, just guidelines and points of departure
Adams Rubble: Much like Pema and Storm do already, and others
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: well, I can attest that in those groups, i saw them come in handy often
Solobill Laville: Fred, did you post something about that?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but yes, they are quite masterful about that
Adams Rubble hopes she didn’t leave anyone out
Pia Iger: I just think we spent a good hour here. maybe it helps for us to deepen conversation, or focus.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: solobill - sorry, this is what we are talking about: http://theicarusproject.net/community/meeting-preramble
Solobill Laville: thx
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: the project happens to relate, IMHO, but their meeting guidlines were what I was sharing, and thinking could apply, as pretty much is, directly here
Solobill Laville: Oh, I did read this
Solobill Laville: THis was more of a vision for listening and being open
Adams Rubble: We’ll be discussing it on Sunday I understand
Solobill Laville: in a supportive group setting, no?
Adams Rubble: yes
Solobill Laville: Or are there other guidelines?
Solobill Laville: OK
Solobill Laville: These are really remarkable, Fred
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: that’s what i was talking about. i guess there have been meetings with mild tension
Adams Rubble: yes they are
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: not at any i have been at
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: and, I suggested these. I too, need to review them often
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i find them personally helpful
Adams Rubble: I put them on a notecard
Solobill Laville: I think that haveing a “beginner’s mind” really helps me
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: aww - that’s inspirational. thanks! The Icarus folks will be really flattered
Solobill Laville: ;)
Pia brings up another possible way to focus the discussions in the group.
Pia Iger: Also Pema is thinking to have 2 or 3 people talk in first 30min , then group discussion.
Pia Iger: so we can really go deeper in one subject, so to speak.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: heh. just when the slots are starting to fill out, the responsibility grows ;-)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: sorry, was that cynical?
Pia Iger: we need that cynical!!
Pia Iger: :0
Solobill Laville: Pema can pilot it, Fred!
Solobill Laville: the bleeding edge…
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: more power to him/us! This community has shown remakrable growth, so i wont underestimate it
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i just have some experience with how hard it is to get folks to commit to presenting/speaking/being on the spot
Solobill Laville: No, it should be completely voluntary
Pia Iger: yes, people suppose to volunteer.
Adams Rubble: I see it both ways
Pia Iger: how?
Adams Rubble: that there is real value in the free form we have had
Adams Rubble: and that structure might provide more depth to the discussion
Adams Rubble: spontanaity (sp) on the one hand
Adams Rubble: and less wasted time on the other
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i agree, on the both ways. spontenaity is beautiful, but sometimes it scatters in the wind. bredth vs. depth sometimes, too.
Solobill Laville: Perhaps we’re growing towards a topical session structure
Solobill Laville: different things at different times
Solobill Laville: or different guardians
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: meta meta meta. we can always return to the present and eternal if we prefer
Pia Iger: yes, different session, different format.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: now that we have brought up the spector of “wasted” time ;-)
Adams Rubble: of course different people show up at different times and it is hard to anticpate their needs at that time
Adams Rubble: at any one time
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: for me, its less the structure vs. unstructure, than the repitition.
Solobill Laville: I think that may get back to Fred’s Icarus code of conduct perhaps
Adams Rubble: you see too much repitition?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: there is beauty in repitition too, and the zen of recovering similar ground
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: not exactly
Fred talked about his PaB experience.
Adams Rubble: How long have you been in PaB Fred?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: technically, i guess since the start - april 1, but i would say I am a part timer
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: so, cut it in half or thirds?
Adams Rubble: I imagine that each of newbies go over the same ground
Solobill Laville: yes
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: actually, i ahve only really been aiming for a pause an hour, so quarters
Adams Rubble: of us
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: dont get me wrong, i dont mind that one bit
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but, it would be nice to build on our shared wisdom/experience. and we do
Solobill Laville: I agree Fred
Adams Rubble: I just haven’t experienced the repitition yet
Adams Rubble: silliness
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but, i will admit that i started getting a bit restless, and found the posts of meetings i wasnt out less compelling
Solobill Laville: and with that agreement, good night to you all!
Adams Rubble: I can understand that
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: gnight!
Pia Iger: good night, Solo.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but, i get restless easily.
Adams Rubble: goodnight Solo
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: something i can/should work on here, if i decide to
Solobill Laville: bye for now!
Solo left.
Adams Rubble: Of course, one can bring up new topics
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: (i should probably get going soon too)
Adams Rubble: and they probably wou;d get discussed
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: no doubt.
Adams Rubble: Yes I am very tired and should go to bed
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: anyway PaB has been an incredible experience for me
Adams Rubble: Yes, me too
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: it has really helped me reorient my perspective around some fundamental concerns in my life
Always glad to hear how PaB has made a difference!
Pia Iger: oh, that is interesting,
Pia Iger: we can talk about that next time.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but, as far as new topics are concerned, i am somewhat unsure if they are appropriate
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i dont ussually hang out with this many buddists ;-)
Adams Rubble: One way to find out is to bring them up and see if they get discussed :)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: :-)
Adams Rubble: You did have a bit of trouble with us all the other night though
Pia Iger: I did not notice?
Adams Rubble: I think we had trouble grasping the subject (no pun intended)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: not sure if i did either… what kind of trouble did i get into this time
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: oh, right
Adams Rubble: tghen it began to get out of hand
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: yeah… that night i was trying to broach the topic of inter-subjectivity
Adams Rubble: yes and we did not understand yet
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but, didn’t quite make it to the ‘inter’ part
Adams Rubble: :)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: heh. well, at least i tried.
Pia Iger: It shows how “being” interpreted differently by individuals.
Adams Rubble: It might have gone differently with a different group
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: so,there i am, wondering if it was a topic best left for another group
Adams Rubble: you should keep trying
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: its not like being and suchness have been exhusted
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: ;-)
Adams Rubble: no different people, not group
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: well, thanks for the encouragment
Pia Iger: not at all, I think we can explore all kinds of topics/
Adams Rubble: yes, I agree
A brief discussion of philosophy.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: this is where i hav been getting my philosophy fix, but that’s not why everyone is here
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i really need to take the icaurs guidlines to heart!
Adams Rubble: I must confess I am very poor when it comes to philosophy
Adams Rubble: Fred, we all do
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i disagree ;-)
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: but anyway, its a first love of mine
Pia Iger: to me, Philosophy, religion, spritual has some common ground.
Adams Rubble: yes they do Pia
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: and the style i was trained in, wested analytical, is somewhat at odds with the style of discourse in this lovely place
Pia Iger: I like to hear different voices here.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: i mean, i have dabbled in other traditions too, but i spent years with aggressive, argumentative, thinkers
Adams Rubble: see you lose me quickly with philosophical vocabulary
Pia Iger: So bring it on. we like to hear your angles. Pls come often.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: heh. for me, “virtual worlds as phenomenological laboratories” was the bait ;-)
Adams Rubble: Now I must go. Pia are we done as far as the log is concerned?
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: that’s how PaB was described, at one point
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: cool - one of you have it?
Pia Iger: Yes.Adams.
Friedrich Ochsenhorn: great. G’night!
