be idealistic here, where can we be? 

Pseudonyms help certain people take
risks that we who write with our professional and personal identity don't
tend to take. Is this the lesson we can learn from those more vociferous
participants on this list? Don't forget also, that avoiding conflict can
easily become a form of collaboration with the *enemy* or worse, a form of
self mutilation. Please, try not to snicker.

Jacyln, it is so nice to hear someone speak of ideals and experimenting for a change, and saying that it is allowed! No less. Yes, let us idealize a little after as Zizek recently put it perhaps the world wide web is what Lenin needed to make the revolution become what it did not become. And so let us smoke our pipes, don our herteronyms and ponder the virtual ideal real and not take anything toooooooooooooooooo personally. And that goes for you esp. Mister Maladroit Maldoror.
