Is there really much difference between 150 posts a week and 250? I'm
not sure that there is. But if you want to keep score, I would bet
that more of Richard's posts deal with original content than what we
are seeing from you. Just say'n.
It only takes me about two or three minutes to read all the daily
messages posted to FFL. I get mine in email using Thunderbird, so they
come in sequentially for easy reading when I check my other mail. If
you're like Barry and read in Message View, it takes only about ten
seconds. There's hardly anything, anywhere to read about what TMers are
doing these days and the comings and goings of TMers.
I've posted over 10,000 messages to news forums in the past fourteen
years, and about half are on-topic messages. I've been reading news
groups since 1996 - alt.meditation.transcendental, alt.yoga.
alt.meditation. alt.casteneda.dreams, alt.tantra, and
alt.buddha.short.fat.guy. And, I read at least three newspapers every
day - we like to keep up with current events. Information junkies are
voracious readers and it's almost impossible to provide enough for them
to read on a single news forum like FFL. Go figure.
And we read a book or three every week. We are only about two blocks
from a public library where we can get books through the inter-library
loan system. And, I watch some TV too - news and Hulu and Netflix. Every
Saturday night we have friends over to talk about stuff and listen to
music on our awesome Yamaha sound system with the Infinity
floor-standing speakers - rock, folk, jazz, classical or world music. We
really enjoy YouTube with the Google Chromecast on the big screen in the
living room.
