i agree it wont last so long for you

hahaha
i was too busy try pointing myself
tho please dont feel neglected
as there just arent so many responsive try pointers about yet

photos and stories unwanted?

if you have been multipointing or having any other obvious fun
please dont ask

again fun is the only real issue as ever
& i disagree with this suggestion
as we already have guidelines agreed to by all

i suppose bill as list owner & sovereign host might change the
rules himself at any time

but your proposal of democracy
if it is not by unanimous consent
would just be a tyranny of the majority
& quite out of place under these circumstances imo

we have all already agreed to the topic by joining the list

if the majority want a new principle
they should just create it for themselves
& not endeavor to impose it on any minority
nor even on a single individual who does remain committed to
our original agreement

that might be fun & it might also enable you to focus on the kinds
of things you have been focussing on lately
without repeatedly being asked where is the fun in that
because i probably will continue to ask here if i still dont get it
since i actually feel i owe you that much as a fellow try pointer

but i would leave you to enjoy yourself unquestioned in a new
group not devoted to try pointing

for really i would have no interest in asking in that case

but i do & will remain committed here as long as i am here

thanx & cheers
