What a delicious peace to be set to "No Mail" on all these lists. Of 100

posts or topics, approximately one is fruitful for discussion. The rest is

a bunch of mindless (and "mindful") jabber (called "prattle" by some),

which although may be considered "fun" by some (haven't you ever heard of

getting together with friends? Seeing movies? Dating?), is utterly

valueless, and has no effect but to fill the mind and ego with meaningless

clutter that has an obscuring and obfuscating effect, strengthening ignorance.

 

What a waste of time, and what peace there is now that there is no mail

coming in, especially from the ugly, egotistical egos.

 

Have "fun,"

 

Tim

Tim,

 

Should I welcome you back? What kinds of posts do you like, do you find of

value? Do you think everyone must agree?

 

Love,

 

--Greg

No Internet connection could provide even more peace and would

save money too; thanks for the reminder.

Isn't that a matter of interpretation? What is fruitful for

one could be poison for another. Chocolate is a delicacy for

humans but can kill dogs.

These days, non-committing relations are en vogue; among

others, it means a preference for cyber-relations, living as

data in the computer and as fantasy in the mind. Consider it a

kind of guarantee against disappointment that could easily be

caused by confrontation with "the real thing".

In that case, deep dreamless sleep will bring even more peace.

That doesn't sound like one having fun at all :) Why expect

anything from a mailing list? It is just a means to share

views and experiences. Anyone looking for "more" will probably

get disappointed. But thanks for the reminder that here, 4

years without Internet provides the savings for a nice used

car :)- I'll keep it in mind.
