stevenaia Michinaga: hello Samud
oO0Oo Resident: Hi!
stevenaia Michinaga: you going to bug me tonight
oO0Oo Resident: Well interesting you should mention that
stevenaia Michinaga: from what I understand, dragonflys don;t bit or sting
stevenaia Michinaga: bite or sting
oO0Oo Resident: no.. I think the worst threat with them is the occasional snapping of the g-string sort of thing
stevenaia Michinaga: ponders that
oO0Oo Resident: it has been on my mind.. how
oO0Oo Resident: individuals can be bugged
stevenaia Michinaga: how to snap a g-string?
stevenaia Michinaga: oh
oO0Oo Resident: [very conversant in G-string snapping thanks Stevenaia ;)]
stevenaia Michinaga: yes being bugged i not simply a matter of intent, there is the matter of ones state of mind
stevenaia Michinaga: *is
oO0Oo Resident: the same stimulas, can affect one differently at different times.. also context comes into play.. very relational in a way
stevenaia Michinaga: yes, and each is affected differently
stevenaia Michinaga: and at different times
oO0Oo Resident thinks there is room for the phrase "politically correct" to evolve and expand.. and kind of a practice too in a way
oO0Oo Resident: Thinking about Bleu's questions
stevenaia Michinaga: can you repeat bleu's statement?
stevenaia Michinaga: or question, rather

--BELL--

Multiverse1 Resident: your welcome
stevenaia Michinaga: BRB, I need to check something in RL, but here are the questions should you want to consider them when I am away
stevenaia Michinaga: could "we" recognize that there is no “us” and “them”? could "we" widen our concept of "we" to include an ever increasing global population? could "we" accept others into our circle of compassion? can "we" recognize the xenophobia in ourselves and rise above the tendency to exclude others? I have hope that "we" can. rather than a narrow "we" I hope for an ever widening "we."
oO0Oo Resident: ty
Multiverse1 Resident: I can, why is this difficult?
Multiverse1 Resident: I have a saying, " I am Me, You are You and We are We"
Multiverse1 Resident: What's wrong with that. It's the damn truth!
oO0Oo Resident: Where did you see a pointer to something wrong Multi?
Multiverse1 Resident: What you are looking for stevie is a melding of minds which cannot physically take place in one ( 1 ) dimension.
oO0Oo Resident: Hi Paradise
Paradise Tennant: smiles hiya sam stev multi :)
Multiverse1 Resident: hi para
Paradise Tennant: seem to have lost a shoe for a while I was wearing it on my ear :) interesting sl eveing :)
Multiverse1 Resident: read stevies chat
oO0Oo Resident: talking about what does and does not bugs, and extending our circles of acceptence, or awareness of our limits of others
Multiverse1 Resident: nothing wrong at all stevie, everything is correct.
oO0Oo Resident: *bug
Multiverse1 Resident: no bugs , who cares, life is Too Short!
oO0Oo Resident: was thinking about the relativity of what offends or bugs me
Multiverse1 Resident: go back sam, brb
oO0Oo Resident: I'll give an example
oO0Oo Resident: Hypocorism
Multiverse1 Resident: why let it, then it conquers you, which lets it win
oO0Oo Resident: sometimes perceived as nice, other times not so much
oO0Oo Resident: for instance
Paradise Tennant: sigh what is hypocorism ?
oO0Oo Resident: the difference between paragraphs 6 and 7 in this description:http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-a-hypocorism.htm

oO0Oo Resident wonders if "the very thing" are ever really the same.. and certainly seems interdependent ...situationally
Alfred Kelberry: *ponders the deep thought* :)
Multiverse1 Resident: interdependant. Good topic for a lifetyme!
stevenaia Michinaga: everythng is a mattter of the perspective of the moment, it is different in the next moment
Multiverse1 Resident: the observer in spacetyme. The special therory of relativity
stevenaia Michinaga: the nature of time and position

Polyhistor Serpente: and griefed offline....
Polyhistor Serpente: I find it amusing  though
Alfred Kelberry: there's also "nub" :)
Polyhistor Serpente: the person who apparantly got upset was not happy with me
Polyhistor Serpente: because.... why they said I could talk about anything
Alfred Kelberry: or with himself
Polyhistor Serpente: I spoke of jello
stevenaia Michinaga: sorry, I crashed
Alfred Kelberry: wb, stev! :)
Polyhistor Serpente: welcome back
Polyhistor Serpente: do you know a SophiaSharon Larnia
stevenaia Michinaga: yes, I've met ehr in RL
Alfred Kelberry: yes! she's a cutie :)
Alfred Kelberry: *purrs*
Polyhistor Serpente: a wonderfully nice one, who name calls :D
Alfred Kelberry: *pokes his nose in teh furs*

Polyhistor Serpente: to bad, I was gonna say to her

Polyhistor Serpente: Hello!!
Polyhistor Serpente: see if I got griefed offline again
Polyhistor Serpente: my question
Polyhistor Serpente: what does the bell mean?
stevenaia Michinaga: griefed offline?

--BELL--

stevenaia Michinaga: the bell reminds us to take 90 seconds to contemplate/meditate, on varipous subjects
stevenaia Michinaga: various
Polyhistor Serpente: now, no one here would grief a person to crash them now would they??
Alfred Kelberry: or simply to have a break to pour some tea :)
stevenaia Michinaga: I wouldn;t know how
Polyhistor Serpente: that is exactly what did happen
Polyhistor Serpente: perhaps you do not
Alfred Kelberry: oh, what an ingenious cunning plan to implement :)
stevenaia Michinaga: when I looked at your profile I crashed, did you do that?
Polyhistor Serpente: no but, perhaps your viewer has a bug, but here is the telling sign it was no random bug for me
Polyhistor Serpente: the person with me, crashed at the same time
Alfred Kelberry: *goes to fetch a caramel pie*
stevenaia Michinaga: we meet every 6 hours, you are always welcome to return
Polyhistor Serpente: http://wiki.playasbeing.org/Chat_Logs/2011/08/2011.08.29_19%3A00_-_Does_Enjoyment_mean_Attachment.
stevenaia Michinaga: hmmm, I was there
Alfred Kelberry: you remind me of a song, stev :)
stevenaia Michinaga: you have a youtube of it?
Alfred Kelberry: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfqkJro-1R4
Alfred Kelberry: the furs :)
Polyhistor Serpente: does this place have a meaning or point?
stevenaia Michinaga: point...exploration
stevenaia Michinaga: meaning is what we give it
Polyhistor Serpente: why here htouhg
Polyhistor Serpente: though
Alfred Kelberry: stev... you're good :)
stevenaia Michinaga: this is the place that was created for the group
Polyhistor Serpente: but why would you even need this place to explore topics
Polyhistor Serpente: unless the topics needed to be restricted
Alfred Kelberry: :)
stevenaia Michinaga: we can;t be meeting at randome places with 40+ people to coordinate daily
Alfred Kelberry: what restricted topic you'd like to discuss, poly?
Polyhistor Serpente: if its about exploration what is the need for coodination
stevenaia Michinaga: coordinate meeting every 6 hours
stevenaia Michinaga: each with a host to welcome newcomers
Polyhistor Serpente: now thats just not nice °͜°
Alfred Kelberry: wb :)
stevenaia Michinaga: what is not nice?
Polyhistor Serpente: its too bad problems with SL are so easily exploitable

--BELL--

Polyhistor Serpente: My guess here is anything you do not wish to have here, or anyone you do not wish to have here, is logged out
Polyhistor Serpente: the topic is not going in a direction that is desired, remove the speaker
stevenaia Michinaga: I would disagree, but I ahve never been "logged off"
Polyhistor Serpente: perhaps that is because you are favored
stevenaia Michinaga: I did not know that others can sign you off, is there such a power wise Boxy?
Polyhistor Serpente: yes, there are alternative viewers capable of doing such things
stevenaia Michinaga: we have banned violent or biligertent people before but some can;t help themselves
stevenaia Michinaga: pardon my typing
Alfred Kelberry: stev, i'd think so
Polyhistor Serpente: banning is one thing, exploiting bugs in SL is another
Alfred Kelberry: any software has bugs
Alfred Kelberry: nature of the beast
Polyhistor Serpente: yes, all does, other then possibly Hello World
Polyhistor Serpente: yes, it is the nature of the beast it is also the users choice to use them or not
Polyhistor Serpente: to go about dealing with things the correct way or to bend the rules
stevenaia Michinaga: I don;t think this group has a point of exploiting siuch things
Polyhistor Serpente: no the group does not, but a group is made of seperate entities, and the entirety of the group cannot control one member of the group who does such things in secret
stevenaia Michinaga: ofcourse
Alfred Kelberry: you break the occam's razor. assuming a hack then a simple crash is much a more probable cause.
Polyhistor Serpente: yes, a simple crash but the events that transpired both now and then are both oddly pointing to it being nonaccidental, expecially considering then as the person with me was on a different viewer entirely and both of us are the only ones to have vanished at the time

--BELL--

Alfred Kelberry: serendipity :)
stevenaia Michinaga: thre is a saying, even paranoids have enemies, so you may be right, some of the time
Polyhistor Serpente: If I was paranoid I would not be here
Alfred Kelberry: why not?
Alfred Kelberry: we have paranoids visiting us :)
Polyhistor Serpente: because I wanted to see if it would happen again, with the same message
stevenaia Michinaga: if your speculation is incorrect, you might appear so
Alfred Kelberry: ah, scientific method. that's good :)
Polyhistor Serpente: its very rare I crash, very, any the only time I see that message is if the region went down, which in this case it did not
stevenaia Michinaga: I think Storm has brought a regoin down
Alfred Kelberry: you seem to be quite attached to this incident
Polyhistor Serpente: bringing a region down is easy, though pointless
Polyhistor Serpente: no I am entertaining myself
stevenaia Michinaga: not if you are frozen and can;t log out
Alfred Kelberry: :)
Alfred Kelberry: any exciting trips await you next year, stev?
stevenaia Michinaga: off to calif next month, but not any distant retreat, would have loved to meet you in Berlin the other week
stevenaia Michinaga: sigh, I;ve already met WOl and PAradise
Polyhistor Serpente: where in california?
stevenaia Michinaga: Bay area
stevenaia Michinaga: relatives there
stevenaia Michinaga: what about u Boxy
Polyhistor Serpente: anyways nice chatting with you, careful with that thing btw alfred
