Re: Much Ado About Nothing? Was: Insulting political cartoon



I'm continuously amazed to find that the most important thing to remember
about this list is how to use the "delete button".  And perhaps people would
be more ready to interact with this list if they weren't focusing on that
delete button all the time.

I'm continuously amazed that in less than 100 years, humans have evolved
from people who thought nothing of walking down to a creek to get their
daily water to a generation in which touching the delete key is considered
laborious.

Well said, Peter.

If you don't like the mushrooms:manure ratio, do something
constructive.  Plant some mushrooms yourself -- or daisies or
dandelions -- and see if they grow.
