I'm not giving up. Deathies, or deathlies or deathers.

Thanks, Sol. Keep 'em coming.

Will there be a mass migration to Canada if Trump wins? How secure is your southern border?
:-)

Oops. Is this not an appropriate subject?

Thanks Dirk. Keep on debugging.

Dirk, can you keep the site moving forward while Sol focuses more on Booksie? Is maintenance mode good enough for us?

Thanks for the update, Dirk. There's comments and discussions that need copying.

I don't know enough about Booksie to hardly comment on it. Does Booksie allow for uploading images?

I've wondered about a technical group. It would be great to have serious talks about anti-gravity approaches, AI, applying for patents, etc. I realize there are intellectual property issues, perhaps the group could be treated as confidential. And if you simply want to make contacts with other techno geeks then it's useful. I don't know how much the technical community worries about the art of writing so it could be very useful.

I've learned so much from TNBW. It's a pity to see it end. But life goes on!

I put Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg address into Grammarly. Sorry, Abe. You only get a score of 85. Two -ly adverbs and 5 -ing verbs! And comma issues.

Granted there were different versions, but this one was the only one with his signature.

Opening sentence:
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

Corrected by Grammarly:
Four hundred and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation conceived in Liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.

I prefer the original line. Go Abe!

As a member of that wing of Christendom, let me protest a bit! My group might be more Prosperity Gospel Lite. We are not as far out there as some but y'all might have problems with us. Heck, I have problems with some of our teachings. But you're looking from the outside in and all you see is BAD. You're painting us all in one massive green (as in Mamon) stroke. You might be surprised as to how my church has been very generous and merciful to people who have needed desperate help. I'm thrilled with what we've been doing and are doing. Some of it is almost unbelievable.

I know it's space opera. I know you're trying to slap groups around and exaggerate. But so many people take so many punches at us that it's a little wearisome. How often do you hear the good stuff? Never. So, be careful. Slap everyone around and it'll go down easier. Perhaps say something good about us. You handled Catholicism so well and you still had zombie nuns and corrupt cardinals.

Snot green sounds pretty disgusting.

Sorry to see you leave like this. Hopefully, it will only be temporary. You have been one of the best reviewers for my writing. Get better, I'm praying for you.

Be blessed and get healthy.

Wow. Very good. And you have more to write! Keep on writing!!
