*bing-bing-bong"

We'd like to thank our replacement Camp Counsellor, Dr Gareth Evans, for standing in at short notice to host the "New Ways to Love" seminar for second honeymooners last night. As a result of the events of that seminar, we'd like to thank our replacement replacement Camp Counsellor, Dr. Edith Murdoch, for standing in for tonight's "Learning to Love your Body" workshop, which she promises will be interpreted far less literally. Our apologies also go out to the owners of Scraps the King Charles Spaniel. If Dr Evans were able to, I'm sure he'd like to apologise in person, but I don't think Scraps would be very happy about that, now, would he?

I've had a few people suggesting that one of these threads be modified so that rather than a seperate thread for each day we put each days in one thread. What do people think about that?

Sounds good to me. What would be the best way to do it?

Wouldn't we lose the carefully crafted daily bulletin aspect somewhat, were it all just thrown together in a job lot, higgledy piggledy, or even hugger mugger? It would be a periodical review rather than a quotidian update.

Of course, that might ease the pressure on Spyder, who surely cannot keep up this standard of linguistically rich public service, even with eight hands to type with.

Wasn't there an RSS feed for Barbelith? Has it vanished now?

”Of course, that might ease the pressure on Spyder, who surely cannot keep up this standard of linguistically rich public service, even with eight hands to type with”

I wouldn’t worry to much about that, comrade Xoc. We arachnids are quite skilled in producing quality literature and public announcements. Look at Charlotte’s Web, for instance. We are a skilled class of arthropods.

Look at Charlotte’s Web, for instance.

The point of which was, a spider can only spin a small number of webs before it dies.

Book. It's a book.

I never read the book. I saw the movie once or twice though.

Spyder, hows about starting a 'Good Morning Barbelith' thread and just date each individual entry? I don't know whether you started this as a joke, but I think it could actually be useful, but needs to be in one place.
