well Buck how do you account for the departure of all the people who used to
post on FFL in the years before I joined? Looking back at the archives, there
were a whole bunch of folk who had already dropped out before I came along, so
the fact that Judy, Anne, Jimmy the Enlightened and Nappy Nabby jumped ship
does not seem to be that much of a recent trend.

Yep, even Rick chooses to postsubstantial material elsewhere now instead of
posting to FFL as tojust shark-feeding for what is left remaining of FFL. A
long list ofpeople is now gone before us who had once helped further the
culture ofthe list, mostly been driven off by an aggressive and
appallingunkindness of culture in the ongoing personal shark-like attack by the
adhominem that evidently has become endemic here; that seeming
'professionals'default to use in their writing method instead of simply dealing
withmaterial posed. And those same complain about originality, thinkingand lack
of creativity..
Nothing to see here folks. Just another person trying to blame the fact that he
and the people he likes can't think of anything intelligent to say on the
people they don't like. :-)
Good timing, Turqb,
Left or driven off? This as your thinking is fine as intelligent retort on one
level Anartaxius except, thelow post and dwindled active member counts may show
something else.
Lookingin on the culture of what is FFL now, is it a surprise the numbershave
dropped off when there is so much about Fairfield or largerspiritual matter
being talked about otherwise by others activelyinvolved in it? No, it is like
the well was poisoned here by some.
Ironically there is an evident invective that is intolerance to
conversationhere and to divergent idea by a concentration of some few who
remain active posting here.
If could be we are just getting on with our lives. Now that most of the TB
crazies have left, some of the tart, sharp conversation has dwindled, and there
are less opportunities for intelligent retorts. I think you would have welcomed
the change. 'Intelligent retort'?
We've not been very good atdiscussion here for some time on FFL and the place
as a forum isnearly dead.
Yep, visiting looking back in onFairfieldlife at yahoo-groups evidently this is
mostly a sadinhospitable place rendered down to some pulp substance of
travelogue,movie reviews and the personal bickerings of a few. Om, for what
once wasFairfieldlife,
Sooooooooooo, turns out that there WERE ZERO posts since last night.
Just another tell that FFL is going down for the count.
