This post is definitely a bit off topic, but I guess I'm spoiled from
the PADS listserver ... which is notoriously off-topic on a regular
basis ...
I think that I should re-subscribe to this list at my work e-mail
address, so I can read it during the day. I always seem to finally get
around to reading the DC list at about 11 or 12 pm, when I have a bit of
a buzz on and am getting ready for bed. It just doesn't do much good at
that point ;-) I'm scanning through it right now, knowing that I should
understand what's going on, but it just isn't sinking in!
Sorry for the OT post. This list is always so professional, and I like
it that way!
I can't believe that 10 years ago I used to work with a buzz on every
day. At the time, I was *sure* that it gave me a creative edge. Ugh.
(By the way, if anybody wants to contribute any comments about that,
please send to me off-list. I don't want to contaminate DC with that
kind of thread. One OT post is enough.)
