    The Guardian for this session was Agatha Macbeth.  Since the Logger decided not to send me the log, I pasted the body of this from Chat.  I arrived at the PABgoda to find Korel already there and AFK...
     
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Hello Korel :)
    Korel Laloix: Bozho
    Korel Laloix: How are you today Agatha?
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Who is? :p
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Fine, you?
    Korel Laloix: At work and pretty busy.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): I'm surprised you find the time to be here
    Korel Laloix: Just taking a little break now.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ah, good
    Korel Laloix: Most of the time I am bored.
    Korel Laloix: Well, a good part.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): The trick is to keep busy
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): 'Sera QT
    Korel Laloix: I have been here for about 8 years now off and on, and I am done making up things to do.
    Qt Core: 'Sera Agatha, hi Korel

    Wol Euler wonders whether susan will sit there or again spend the session standing silently
    Samúð (oo0oo): W♥llie
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): I think she may be on the phone again
    Wol Euler: heh

    Wol Euler: for some reason I read that as "North Pole"
    Eliza Madrigal: wonder why
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Could be the surroundings Wol
    Wol Euler is easily led astray by externalities
    Eliza Madrigal: some flooding in Vt, Jersey I think... but NYC seems fine
    Eliza Madrigal: re the NE

    Samúð (oo0oo): who will stay up to greet the great pumpkin?
    Wol Euler smiles.

    Eliza Madrigal: yes
    FcSeeker: thanks to Moon and O
     
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ah - I can't sit down
    Wol Euler smiles.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): ty!
    I toss in a random question
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Is it anybody's birthday?
    Wol Euler: it has to be *somebody*s birthday
    FcSeeker: <3

    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): C ya Druth
    Samúð (oo0oo): Bye Druth :)
    Eliza Madrigal: I think we must be all very inspired to have Silent Day on Sept 21... already starting :)
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Please observe 90 seconds of silence.
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Thank you.  (Hey we observed that one!)
    Dash (dash.earthboy): the picks melted from the additional coin heat
    FcSeeker: sad
    Eliza Madrigal: oh, sorry Dash
    Dash (dash.earthboy): kinda ruined the cup holder too
    Wol Euler: that's impressive
    Dash (dash.earthboy): yah, i've been concerned about the heat on this expedition
    Dash (dash.earthboy): haven't looked at the guitars yet...dreading what I may find
    FcSeeker: <3
    Wol Euler: :(
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): 'Store in a cool, dry place'
    Dash (dash.earthboy): precisely Aggers
    Dash (dash.earthboy): have done so on one of them for over 30 years
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): They never put that on guitars tho
    Korel joins Susan in the standing up game...
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Why is Korel over there?
    Dash (dash.earthboy): perhaps this is a fair example of "desperate times call for desperate measures"
    Wol Euler: pretending to be Observerm
    Eliza Madrigal: maybe she wanted to smoke, or talk on the phone
    Eliza Madrigal giggles
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Looks just like him
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Korelm
    Samúð (oo0oo): furries are warm

    Wol Euler: bye qt, take care
    arabella Ella: Ciao Qt
    Santoshima: bye qt
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Is it me or do Korel and Susan look like they're fighting a duel?
    Dash (dash.earthboy): hey Ara, bye Qt
    Santoshima: & hello arabella
    Eliza Madrigal: heheh
    Wol Euler: heheh
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): 'Take twenty paces and FIRE'
    Wol Euler: more like "take twenty paces and fall sound asleep"
    Samúð (oo0oo): holster that mind Aggers
    Dash (dash.earthboy): ahem...TURN and FIRE :)
    Wol Euler: ah, that's what we ahve been doing wrong all this time
    Samúð (oo0oo): ;)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ah, but my way nobody gets hurt
    Eliza Madrigal: we only have lemming guns here anyway
    Samúð (oo0oo) purrs like a kitten
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): And frog guns
    Dash (dash.earthboy): right Aggers :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): And banana guns
    Eliza Madrigal: Oh, wait... watermelon guns too
    Eliza Madrigal: guess we are quite armed
    Samúð (oo0oo): and Ribbit guns
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): What a violent crew
    arabella Ella: frog guns? melon guns? scuse me?
    Eliza Madrigal: wow had no idea
    Eliza Madrigal: stockpiled
    arabella Ella giggles
    Eliza Madrigal laughs
    Out come the guns - firing an assortment of frogs and giant words
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Thank God we don't have elephant guns
    Eliza Madrigal: yet
    Samúð (oo0oo): lol

    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Pax et boner Dash
    Wol Euler: bye dash, I hope nothing else melts
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): He needs FC's snow
    Wol Euler: wow, the frogs pushed susan all the way out there.
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): waves
    Eliza Madrigal: Bye Dash :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ultraviolent amphibians
    Wol Euler: sounds like a Violent Femmes cover band
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Probably is :p
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): lol
    Eliza Madrigal: notes inventory option to 'detach from yourself'
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Hey, where did myself go?
    Like Groucho said 'Whatever happened to me?'
    Wol Euler infers that she is having too much fun
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Can't have that!
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Fun at my session - what next?
    Samúð (oo0oo): How have you been Arabella?
    Samúð (oo0oo): Travelling a lot still?
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Cute (as always)
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    arabella Ella: I'm fine thanks Sam .. yoursef?
    arabella Ella: not too much travelling at the moment
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Please observe 90 seconds of silence.

    Korel Laloix: Heya
    Zon Kwan: waves and slips away
    Wol Euler: hello korel, bye zon
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth) waves back
    Korel Laloix: Take care.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Zon sinks slowly in the west
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Thank you.
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Korel :) cute hair
    Samúð (oo0oo): Bye Zon
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Yes, isn't it?
    Korel Laloix smiles ..... wado
    Samúð (oo0oo): Didn't miss much Korel.. just a cyclone of frogs
    arabella Ella giggles
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): And LOLs
    Korel Laloix: Nice.
    Wol Euler grins somewhat shamefacedly
    Korel Laloix: I like Kermit
    Eliza Madrigal: LoLfrogs
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Shameantlered
    Wol Euler: that too
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Mmm
    arabella Ella: guess who is the culprit!
    Samúð (oo0oo): the velvetine catelope
    Wol Euler whistles and looks around
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): The Freemasons?
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    arabella Ella: no one is pointing fingers ...
    Wol Euler: "when can I run and play with the real catelopes?"
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Twelve-foot lizards from Venus?
    arabella Ella: or paws
    Agatha tugs Wol's tail to get their attention!
    Wol Euler: hello zen
    Wol Euler: ow
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Zen :)
    Samúð (oo0oo): better catelope than cantelope
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Zen!
    arabella Ella: Hiya Zen!
    Santoshima: hey zen
    Zen (zen.arado): was watching TV
    arabella Ella: X factor?
    Samúð (oo0oo): za Zen alzo rizes!
    Zen (zen.arado): about 9/11
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Naughty
    Santoshima: greetings rasima
    Eliza Madrigal: Hi Rasima :)
    Zen (zen.arado): conspiracy theories
    Zen (zen.arado): Hi Rasima
    Samúð (oo0oo): H Rasima
    arabella Ella: Hiya Rasima
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Like I said...the Freemasons
    arabella Ella: So who really did it Zen?
    arabella Ella: Aliens?
    Wol Euler: see, that's why I never bother greeting people until/unless they come into the circle :)
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Santoshima: noted
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Yeah, now I have to edit her out (sigh)
    Wol Euler: yep
    Zen (zen.arado): it was the US govt of course
    arabella Ella: mmmm
    Zen (zen.arado): :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Oh, they're sure to be to blame!
    arabella Ella: and ... obvious next question ... why?
    Zen (zen.arado): so they could start a war
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Bet it involves Israel somewhere...
    Eliza Madrigal: she's been here before actually so not necessarily (visitor)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Oh she has?
    Zen (zen.arado): yeh it was them too
    Wol Euler: well, that makes perfect sense to me, zen
    Wol Euler nods vigorously
    arabella Ella: mmmm
    Eliza Madrigal: actually, there was indeed a plan in waiting for something to happen, but it is too easy to link a and b and c, etc.
    arabella Ella: nothing related to war or violence can ever make sense
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): So it's ok to leave her in, since she didn't say anything?
    Eliza Madrigal: I think so Aggers
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Okies
    Wol Euler: if she has agreed to being published, yes
    Wol Euler: floaty mermaid
    Zen (zen.arado): she was a US govt agent maybe
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): But does it make a difference whether she actually speaks or not?
    Wol Euler: merbeing
    Eliza Madrigal wonders if that feels as lovely as it looks
    Wol Euler: if that mattered we'd have to take out half of the guardians too :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): how so?
    Zen (zen.arado): the pavilion will be attacked soon
    Eliza Madrigal: she gave permission in another log
    Wol Euler: many people never say anything :)
    Santoshima: mmmmm
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Oh, I see what you mean
    arabella Ella: so pavillion is next is it Zen?
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): (complications)
    Zen (zen.arado): (visualizes the pavilion sinking into the ground)
    arabella Ella: wipe out compassion
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Nice shoes Liz
     
    Zen (zen.arado): shouldn't joke about it
    Eliza Madrigal: thanks :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Many people try to unfortunately (make up conspiracy theories)
    Zen (zen.arado): too many lives lost
    arabella Ella: well the silly thing is that we have come to a stage when it is difficult to know what to believe and what not to believe
    Samúð (oo0oo): life is sacred
    arabella Ella: about who is responsible for what
    Wol Euler: that we can believe
    Eliza Madrigal: yes it can't be about belief as we've known it
    Eliza Madrigal: in almost any arena
    arabella Ella: who do you believe and why and who do you trust and why
    arabella Ella: especially when it comes to media and politics
    arabella Ella: or politicians
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): I don't think I trust either
    Eliza Madrigal: I read somewhere that the original idea of the word belief is closer to love or devotion than to buying into
    arabella Ella: the world is in a sad state as i think it is impossible for anyone who is kind and compassionate and understanding to become a successful politician
    Eliza Madrigal: maybe fewer beliefs with such a high criteria :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): It's having something to love or be devoted to i guess
    Samúð (oo0oo): trust is dynamic and interoperational.. ::/me nominates Ara for local council::
    Eliza Madrigal: :)))
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Seconded!
    Eliza Madrigal: I'd go with Ara
    Wol Euler: :)
    arabella Ella: local council ... what?
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Please observe 90 seconds of silence.
    arabella Ella: no nominations for me pls for whatever ... not at this point in time
    Wol Euler: I have an early start tomorrow, and some errands still to run.

    Zen (zen.arado): :)
    Eliza Madrigal: and we're left with the symmetry she loves so much
    arabella Ella: :)
    Zen (zen.arado) wishes he was warm and furry too
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): The moral of all this is Zen - don't watch television!
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Eliza Madrigal: you're fuzzier with your new hair Zen
    Zen (zen.arado): he getting there
    arabella Ella loves Zen's new hair :0
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Samúð (oo0oo) zooms
    Zen (zen.arado): ty Ara
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Zen will be a furry too soon :p
    Eliza Madrigal giggles
    Eliza Madrigal: finally, growth in SL
    Samúð (oo0oo): OMG Zen is so handsome!

    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Snap
    Samúð (oo0oo): there... phew
    Zen (zen.arado): :)
    Eliza Madrigal: maybe you should give up tv for the 99 days Zen
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Or altogether?
    Zen (zen.arado): I watched it on computer
    Zen (zen.arado): does that count?
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ah...no excuse
    Eliza Madrigal: loopholes :)
    Santoshima: 'fraid so
    arabella Ella: would be interesting to see whether SL reduces peoples TV time
    Zen (zen.arado): I am not a non TV watcher snob
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Hope so Ara :p
    Eliza Madrigal: nor am I actually
    Eliza Madrigal: but I'm sure it does Ara
    Eliza Madrigal: if given the chance to engage or be passive
    arabella Ella: i think it does at least in my case it did
    Zen (zen.arado): 'I haven't got a TV' some announce airily
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): I have one, just don't watch the damn thing
    arabella Ella: you dont need a proper TV today a phone or laptop will do nicely
    Zen (zen.arado): yeh
    Eliza Madrigal: yes for me too.... I actually schedule time to watch certain shows now, particularly with the kids, it isn't a default
    Zen (zen.arado): I am selective
    arabella Ella: some ppl here even watch UK X Factor on YouTube
    Zen (zen.arado): only watch the best rubbish
    Samúð (oo0oo) thinks, I ought to zoom in more often and actually look at people's avies ;) ::snaps a Zen wallpaper for the desktop::
    Eliza Madrigal: that may be the difference, not just a blind habit
    Zen (zen.arado): hmmm
    Zen (zen.arado): you ok Sam?
    Eliza Madrigal: Uh Oh, discovering cam powers
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Or Austin Powers?
    Eliza Madrigal: yeah baby
    Samúð (oo0oo): lol... roll with it Zenji
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Love your mojo 0
    Samúð (oo0oo) flashes smile at Aga
    Zen (zen.arado): have gone off Facebook
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth) is dazzled
    arabella Ella: oh nooooo Zen ... why?
    Zen (zen.arado): think it can be worse than TV
    Samúð (oo0oo): but haven't lost face Zen
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Let's face it
    Zen (zen.arado): all those videos I had to watch
    arabella Ella: LOL
    Eliza Madrigal: 'had to watch' hah
    Zen (zen.arado): took all day
    arabella Ella: what I dont like about FB at the moment is they keep changing things every day
    arabella Ella: new settings, etc
    Eliza Madrigal: 'improvements'
    arabella Ella: too many Eliza and all at the same time
    arabella Ella: ppl dont mind change but too much is too much
    Eliza Madrigal: hmmm... Santo? Okay?
    Santoshima: needed air
    Santoshima: and grass
    Eliza Madrigal: ah OK :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): And snow
    Samúð (oo0oo): here is a course at Stanford Univ. just on Facebook and its history of ethical dilemmas for modern social culture.
    arabella Ella: if you need heat this is the place to visit :)
    arabella Ella: come visit me
    Samúð (oo0oo): *there
    Zen (zen.arado): amazing Sam
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): That will be one loooooong course
    Samúð (oo0oo): indeed
    Eliza Madrigal: wow
    Eliza Madrigal: does no one subscribe to the 'everything bad is good for you' philosophy?
    Zen (zen.arado): so that's why I don't visit
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Me
    arabella Ella: lots of new ethical dilemmas and decisions
    Zen (zen.arado): too many ethical dilemmas
    Eliza Madrigal: :) >whew<
    Samúð (oo0oo): am struck by the lag between adoption and being informed on so many online fronts
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): There's lag everywhere 0
    Zen (zen.arado): too much information
    arabella Ella: do you think everyone is interested in being informed though?
    Zen (zen.arado): overload
    Eliza Madrigal: I think we are in transition
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Informed with the truth, yes
    arabella Ella: many young ppl just dont care
    Samúð (oo0oo): no I don't
    Samúð (oo0oo): used to
    Samúð (oo0oo): not anymore
    Zen (zen.arado): should keep friends to under 100
    Samúð (oo0oo): people seem to crave their ignorance, and hold it close
    Santoshima: mass disembodiment
    arabella Ella: why Zen?
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): In SL or RL Zen?
    Zen (zen.arado): Facebook
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Oh
    Samúð (oo0oo): How can a person realistically be a good friend to 100 people?
    Zen (zen.arado): but there is a theory that humans interact best in groups of 150 or so
    arabella Ella: no one says you have to be a 'good' friend on FB
    Zen (zen.arado): exactly Sam
    Subaru Arun is Online
    Eliza Madrigal: because one friend just needs a note and wave once in a while, and another just likes a hug on their birthday
    Santoshima: whose theory, zen?
    arabella Ella: some need an occasional 'poke'
    Samúð (oo0oo): and can one be a good friend to 3 people while maintaining hundreds of associations?
    Zen (zen.arado): I forget Santo
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Please observe 90 seconds of silence.
    arabella Ella: yes Sam
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): depends what fuels you
    arabella Ella: i must go very late here nearly midnight good night all!
    Eliza Madrigal: Night Ara :)
    Zen (zen.arado): nite Ara
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Sleep well Ara
    Santoshima: night ara, sleep well
    Zen (zen.arado): sleep well
    Zen (zen.arado): don't go on FB
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): waves
    Zen (zen.arado): :)
    Samúð (oo0oo) still nominates Ara for at least kindnes and compassion
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Samúð (oo0oo): cheers
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Thank you.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth) nominates 0 for spellcheck
    Eliza Madrigal: I'm closer to my sister now than I was pre-facebook... she feels good that I can keep up with her kids' pictures for instance
    Samúð (oo0oo): :P
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Is she close?
    Eliza Madrigal: no in a different state and ten years younger
    Samúð (oo0oo): balance and choice
    Eliza Madrigal: and rhythms of life and work
    Zen (zen.arado): selectivity
    Zen (zen.arado): it's ok if used properly
    Zen (zen.arado): I guess
    Samúð (oo0oo): what if "fuel" is not ultimately external Susan?
    Eliza Madrigal: yes, I definitely see both sides
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): There's no fuel like an old fuel
    Eliza Madrigal: but I value some treasures mined there
    Santoshima: did susan mean fuel as external?
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): for extroverts social engagement is fuel in addition to their internally driven values
    Eliza Madrigal: yes if someone is very outgoing they might be energized by lots of feedback?
    Eliza Madrigal: ah, nods
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): nods with eliza
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): There ya go then
    Zen (zen.arado): it can use up a lot of time
    Eliza Madrigal: yes
    Eliza Madrigal: generally I have a 'if I can't slow it down give it up' policy
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): As you get older, that's a wise policy :)
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Zen (zen.arado): that's why I have given everything up :)
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Aww
    Susan Sorensson (iwandertoo): waves...best to everyone
    Eliza Madrigal: bye Susan :)
    Samúð (oo0oo): Cheers Susan
    Santoshima: salut
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Bye Sue, fuel well
    Eliza Madrigal: :))
    Eliza Madrigal thinks of Pema talking about the engine that runs on no fuel
    Zen (zen.arado): bye Susan
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): So how that's how he gets around the world
    Eliza Madrigal: seems so
    Eliza Madrigal: no time and no fuel
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Saves money anyway
    Samúð (oo0oo) thinks Tokyo to New jersey must seem a short distance to an Astrophysicist.
    Eliza Madrigal: good point, that
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ah, but he leaves his rocket in the garage
    Eliza Madrigal: I've read TSK a few times now but seem to still have to make choices between one place and another at one time or another
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): What's TSK?
    Eliza Madrigal: the time space knowledge book
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Ah
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Dr Who probably wrote it then?
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Eliza Madrigal: stim, with tarthang tulku actually
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): tsk tsk
    Samúð (oo0oo): tarthang Tulku?
    Eliza Madrigal nods
    Eliza Madrigal: wonderful book.... its funny though, people get tripped up on the exercizes
    Eliza Madrigal: like 'go to a mountain'.... 'but I don't have a mountain'
    Eliza Madrigal: :))
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth) wonders what Mohammed would make of that
    Zen (zen.arado): like me
    Zen (zen.arado): :)
    Eliza Madrigal: hehe
    Samúð (oo0oo): yet you are a rock of gibralter
    Eliza Madrigal winks at Zen
    Eliza Madrigal: well I read it once without understanding it at all
    Eliza Madrigal: o granted, maybe not for everyone
    Eliza Madrigal: one*
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Please observe 90 seconds of silence.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth) wonders what 0 granted
    Eliza Madrigal: endless wishes :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): She does look a bit like a fairy today :P
    Santoshima: maybe an IM?
    Samúð (oo0oo): ?
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Thank you.
    Eliza Madrigal: sorry for not connecting my thoughts earlier, mentioned the book because it is an/maybe the inspiration for Pema
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Oh is that where playasbeing originates?
    Eliza Madrigal: yes somewhere in the last chapter of the book I think is where he pulled the title from
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): I see, interesting
    Samúð (oo0oo): ?me smiles
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth) pokes 0 in the eye
    Eliza Madrigal: he's talked about it a bit, but of course there are many inspirations
    Samúð (oo0oo): Would like to experience that mind reading that book
    Eliza Madrigal: :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Shame Stim isn't still in SL
    Eliza Madrigal wonders why Agatha is always poking O in the eye
    Samúð (oo0oo): Zenji Wallpaper for all: http://i.imgur.com/0A1KG.jpg
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): She deserves it! :p
    Samúð (oo0oo): She loves me
    Eliza Madrigal: stim visits now... but a the pub for a bit some evenings 4pm ish
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): That too
    Zen (zen.arado): cared to look
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Haven't seen him for ages
    Zen (zen.arado): scared
    Eliza Madrigal: great picture Zen, love the glasses
    Eliza Madrigal: fun to go back and read some stim sessions
    Eliza Madrigal: or the dialogs
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Mm
    Eliza Madrigal: http://wiki.playasbeing.org/PaB_Books/Magic_of_Time/Unpublished_Dialogues/Dialogue_with_Stim_Morane
    Zen (zen.arado): maybe I will try to read book again
    Eliza Madrigal: (not to bombard people but I love these talks)
    Eliza Madrigal: Zen if you wanted to I'd start again....
    Samúð (oo0oo): clicks
    Zen (zen.arado): need time (and space and knowledge)
    Zen (zen.arado): though
    Eliza Madrigal: heheh
    Eliza Madrigal: Well had wanted to do the same with 'each moment is the universe'... have a discussion or read along with others
    Eliza Madrigal: bit smaller of a book :)
    Zen (zen.arado): staff at Ways of Knowing is diminishing
    Eliza Madrigal: yes?
    Zen (zen.arado): so many have left
    Eliza Madrigal: left or just aren't regular now?
    Zen (zen.arado): looks like Violet won't have time now
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Maybe they realised they didn't know
    Eliza Madrigal: hehehhe
    Zen (zen.arado): :)
    Eliza Madrigal: re agatha not violet :)
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Poor Atari
    Eliza Madrigal: sorry to hear that, like to read her
    Zen (zen.arado): nobody has any time
    Eliza Madrigal: well things shift sometimes
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Not much seems to go on at Kira at all these days
    Eliza Madrigal: I loved WoK...
    Samúð (oo0oo): seasons and weather
    Eliza Madrigal: but also felt that we got theoretical a lot for a while
    Samúð (oo0oo): and love
    Samúð (oo0oo): and seeds
    Eliza Madrigal: and I like the direct homework, etc
    Eliza Madrigal: Aw, yes Sam...
    Samúð (oo0oo): P: what can be new in SL with PaB and how we use terms from the past
    S: yes, that's probably true. It's just a matter of what you use to
     "seed" the gradual development of something new.
    P: yes
    P: do you see alternatives for the current approaches, other ways that
     "seeding" with the use of terms like "appreciating the presence of
     appearance", "wu-wei", etc?
    S: Well of course I'm somewhat at a disadvantage regarding that, since
     I tend to "think" in either quite traditional terms, or in
     extremely direct ways that have always been outside of traditions
     but are also outside of all practice and ordinary mind options.
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Wow, fast typer
    Eliza Madrigal smiles
    Samúð (oo0oo): what type is that?
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): The fast type
    Eliza Madrigal: r
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Life in the fast lane
    Samúð (oo0oo): whenever i think of Stim... I ... (fill in the blank)
    Eliza Madrigal: smile or cry, sometimes at the same time
    Samúð (oo0oo): *
    Eliza Madrigal: :) what does the excerpt say to you?
    Samúð (oo0oo): it says "people's nature is to care about people"
    Samúð (oo0oo): to me
    Sadly, not everyone does....
    Play as Being 15 minute bell: Please observe 90 seconds of silence.
    Eliza Madrigal: :**)
    Eliza Madrigal waves to Agatha, sweet dreams friend
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Well, I shall jump in my tardis and be off
    Aggers (agatha.macbeth): Bye folks
