dear Rick, I vote for keeping weekly post limit to 50. Or increase to 70! Of course I've been spoiled by other forums that have unlimited posting. And I do understand Buck's reasons. But Buck, in case you haven't noticed, some people don't want to go offline. Probably something to do with wanting to maintain anonymity and privacy.
OTOH, some of us would like to reply to every single post, if only to say thank you for something especially interesting and or beautiful, moving, funny, etc. I've stopped thanking for crop circles because of posting limit. So here is blanket gratitude for all past and future crop circles, Mr. Apple Sauce The thing is, you are already completely free to avoid reading the posts you're not interested in. So why are you aiming to limit the freedom of others whose posting style is different than yours? BTW, I enjoyed your post to Turq inviting him to come to Dome. Wonderful irony, yes? Share in Bagambhrini, feeling the rounding of the students, maybe you are too, Buck in Patanjali? ________________________________ From: Buck <dhamiltony...@yahoo.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Thursday, August 30, 2012 10:14 PM Subject: [FairfieldLife] Re: Quiz: Determining one's existential sincerity --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Alex Stanley" <j_alexander_stanley@...> wrote: > > > > --- In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, "Robin Carlsen" <maskedzebra@> wrote: > > > > > > Dear Emily, > > > > I have chosen to ignore, for now, your introductory remarks, which > > are a gloss upon your commentary.

Let's go back to 30 posts per week. The writing was much better then when posts were precious at 30 to 40 posts per week. A cap of 50 posts per week puts this place in to twitter. Like if someone wants to 'salon' on TV shows or on the book about Osama, or Ravi or Robin or 'the gang' want to bomb this place on their stuff, at 30 posts it is more likely to be connected to FFL. 50 posts per week is too damned excruciating to get these people off of FFL. At 30 posts the airways would free up by Saturday nite for topics related to FF on a lot of weeks. I'd be glad to help you administrate this, just give me the passwords to FFL. Your loyal and early FFL member, -Buck in FF
