Just popping in to ask...
Just curious... do any of you know what's up with hal clarendon's perpetually rewritten chapter of whatever his memoir is called? (Then? The? Do?) I reviewed the first version and gave up reviewing later ones when I decided it was more performance art than writing (How many times can I completely rewrite a chapter with an ever-changing, cryptic title, and still get reviewed?).
I see that his latest versions apparently received no reviews. I hate to play into this, but I am curious what his deal is. Hal - if you are reading this - what's the deal?

Hm. I'm gonna have to check this out with my spyglass and my trusty sidekick Watson.

All right. I have returned, and I leave you with this: "Hm."
I think that says it all ![]()

Holmes, each successive version has been replaced with the next... so there's no trail of bread crumbs to follow... as far as I can tell. Hm.

Oy vey is mir - indeed. (There's an advanced form of oy for your Yiddish lexicon. It means, loosely, "woe is me." Pronounced: "Oy vay iz meer." Can be shortened to "oy vayz meer." You'll really impress your college buddies with that one!)

I noticed that, too but have no clue. He is not a member of this group.
By the way, I'm into Jung, too. Check out my thread in this forum.
