    DrStanKeanley Resident: 's current display-name is "Dr Stanley Keanley".
    DR42 Resident: 's current display-name is "Riff Raff".
    DrStanKeanley Resident: Greetings,
    Riddle Sideways: Hello
    DR42 Resident: ηαмαѕтє
                     --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: have we met before?
    Riddle Sideways: have you been here before?
    DrStanKeanley Resident: No, and Yes.
    Riddle Sideways: ah then well met
    DrStanKeanley Resident: ty
    DrStanKeanley Resident: Nice meeting you as well.
    DR42 Resident: Well, since I have a calling card of yours, we must have met before!
    Riddle Sideways: oh, that memory loss-leak is happening again :)
    DR42 Resident: A senior / blond moment for me. I only remember because your card is in my inventory.
    Riddle Sideways: am having trouble getting anything chatful out of this weeks topic
    Riddle Sideways: When to be still (maybe right now) and when to act.
    DR42 Resident: When to act, when to wait?
    DrStanKeanley Resident: Might it be that you are not currently driven with Moral Outrage?
    Riddle Sideways: will think more on that, but seems not to be the case
    Riddle Sideways: yep, RL has enough Moral Outrage at the moment
    Riddle Sideways: seems to be exactly the correct time to be still
                     --BELL--
    DR42 Resident: 90 seconds of silence seems pointless when we are being silent in general.
    Riddle Sideways: makes for boring chat also
    Riddle Sideways: well, allowing a little truth in... though being still here in SL
    Riddle Sideways: there were emails being answered, that went on hold during the 90 sec
    DR42 Resident: Well, TbT, I'm sorting out parts of my inventory.
    Riddle Sideways: worthwhile opperation
    Riddle Sideways: like organizing the sock drawer
    DR42 Resident: Well, I have gone from 75,000 items down to 33,000
    Riddle Sideways: wow
    Riddle Sideways: all those valuables ... poof
    Riddle Sideways: duplicate left socks
    DR42 Resident: All the ones that are copy / transfer into a few gift boxes so they can be shared.
    DR42 Resident: And, yes, even in SL, I find I have more left shoes without a matching right.
    Riddle Sideways: maybe the tipping point of going into action of sorting inventory is 75,000
    Riddle Sideways: or is it the 'nothing better to do right now' situation :)
    DR42 Resident: When it gets to the point of knowing I have many duplicates because I filed them one way once and another way later.
    Riddle Sideways: bet there is a latin or pysch terms for that
    DrStanKeanley Resident: Way too much in my inventory, maybe a few hundred items.
    DR42 Resident: Disorganized?
    Riddle Sideways: organizationally challenged. sounds better
                     --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: bye
    DR42 Resident: But, it sounds less honest.
    Riddle Sideways: yeah
    DR42 Resident: Well, he was silent...
    Riddle Sideways: wanted the chat to go more into outrage?
    Riddle Sideways: a general listing of the current outrages
    Riddle Sideways: like the morning newspaper
    DR42 Resident: If I go into Facebook, I can get outraged.
    Riddle Sideways: looking at email can bring outrage
    Riddle Sideways: ha, you have Outragious friends lol
    DR42 Resident: No, it is the feeds from the Times, the Post, CNN, and any of a few dozen other new feeds.
    DR42 Resident: But, yes, I have many outrageous friends, but in a good way.
    Riddle Sideways: those "News" (?) sources deal in outrage inducement.
    Riddle Sideways: making money on a sick part of human nature
    DR42 Resident: The trick is to filter.
    Riddle Sideways: start at the back of the paper and read the comics first
    Riddle Sideways: NT Times has no comics
    Riddle Sideways: NY
    DR42 Resident: True, but I don't really look at the comics. New Yorker is interesting.
    Riddle Sideways: Probably time to toss the tall stack of New Yorker mags, each with 1 article yet to finish
    DR42 Resident: So little of the news has any direct impact on me.
    Riddle Sideways: yes
    DR42 Resident: Oh, I do. Cut them up, save the one or two things I want to pass on to a friend.
    Riddle Sideways: ha, Mother-in-law does that all the time. The post brings another envelope of clippings
    DR42 Resident: It is only one or two a month for me.
                     --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: Interesting that something is gong on to make relationships of 'this is an article that <person> must be read'
    Riddle Sideways: but, email is easier
    Riddle Sideways: just clip the URL
    DR42 Resident: That and FB shares.
    Riddle Sideways: send it to 13 friends
    Riddle Sideways: post it on the wall... find that nobody 'likes' it :)
    DR42 Resident: My connections between topics and other things like poeople and articles/web pages seems random to others. And, it morphs rather rapidly.
    Riddle Sideways: tweet it and see the subscribers drop
    DR42 Resident: I never got into twitter. I might have 3 subscribers.
    Riddle Sideways: yes, that morphing of organization systems, values, methods, etc.
    Riddle Sideways: one week it is certain that Mike would like all these stupid cat vids
    Riddle Sideways: the next week Mike is skipped
    DR42 Resident: In a discussion on one topic, I will make a comment that seems totally off the wall a few seconds later. If asked, I can stop and retrace the relationship links, but it is likely to be 3 or 4 degrees of separation.
    Riddle Sideways: of course sometimes mine ARE off the wall. But, that really happens here with larger crowds
    Riddle Sideways: by the time a comment can be added
    Riddle Sideways: the topic has segwayed to ...
    Riddle Sideways: hey is that a butterfly
    DR42 Resident: Last night, I was wondering if one of the topics had been "Problem solving" or "Communications Styles", which are related, oddly.
    DR42 Resident: That was related because I thought of morphing discussions, Then the change of topic, then the meeting a few days ago about selecting a topic, then the thought of new topics.
    DR42 Resident: But, I made a choice to sit quietly and not act on my thoughts. :)
    Riddle Sideways: sings: a morphng we will go
                     --BELL--
    Riddle Sideways: then a re-re-think and that a comment would be justified on that topic. So, an act is taken. Keys are typed, grammar corrected, pronouns removed. hit return.
    Riddle Sideways: the topic moved/morphed
    Riddle Sideways: comment is irrelavant
    Riddle Sideways: and worse it is off the wall
    DR42 Resident: The hour is up, I need to head out and cut the grass.
    DR42 Resident: G'day.
    Riddle Sideways: thank you for outragious chat
    DR42 Resident: YW
    Riddle Sideways: wonder what title to use on log?
    DR42 Resident: Whatever you choose. Most helpful would probably be "Maude"
    Riddle Sideways: ok</person>
