Hi Serpentqueen, Thank you. " It doesn't last - it is fleeting." How do you feel when the experience is absent? amit Amit: You're cracking me up this morning. Have you considered a job as a standup comedian? (How do you feel when the experience is absent?) Ha ha. Hi ZD, Yes I can see why that might crack you up as though the question applied to you. I prefer to follow the conversation from where it seems to be at and see where it goes rather than jump ahead to some preformed idea about who I am talking to and what they need. No that job would ruin my life. I avoid situations that make me anxious, its bad for my health. Could you? amit |

Hi ZD, Its not much to go on but I doubt that will deter anyone. amit "not much?" Hi laughter, Yes "not much" in terms of "What we have to go on in this medium is the content that is generated by the login." leading to the formation in the mind of "the cardboard cut-out". There may be a more serious consideration about how the Soap Opera puts of anyone joining in that is interested in exchanging without all that stuff. The un-moderated section doesn't seem to have ended that in the moderated section unfortunately. Maybe with Top as moderator that might change. I don't find it personally upsetting. After living communally for many years the Soap Opera here is chicken feed. amit |

Don't think there are any rules about that, at least it doesn't apply in my universe as Mr Bumble describes much more eloquently when talking about his wife. amit |
