First, thanks for the warm welcome everybody, and hello back to those
sending greetings! Nice to find some old friends and acquaintances
here. (I'm starting to get more curious about how folks ended up on
this list; I suppose I might have to look through the archives.)

Say more about the "making trouble" bit?
Doesn't everyone like making trouble? By which I mostly mean mischief.
Which I can possibly redeem by saying that it's useful for people to
take a look at something through fresh eyes once in a while, and when I
can help in a small way I enjoy it, though probably too much. In
conversation I seem to have a talent for asking the question which not
only helps me understand what somebody does, but which, when a response
is constructed, clarifies it for the respondent as well, and possibly
changes their perspective in a helpful fashion.
It's hardly as amusing now because the site I was parodying is long
gone, but when I created http://ourfirstanalsex.com I thought it was
highly entertaining, and some other folks seemed to too. Nobody ever
seemed to notice http://babyexchange.ro when it was up (now available
only at http://beliefresearch.org/babyexchange.ro/), but that was also
fun to make. I'm sure I'm forgetting other stuff, and I know there's
yet more stuff which I don't want to commit to any digital medium!
