This is a community.  In real communities, people go over, have a beer, cry,
have sex, get drunk, and spill their guts about their problems to their
community members.  This is virtual, but it is still in a small way a
community.  It ain't church, but if some of these guys aren't churchgoes,
then at least they can find a wee bit of comfort here with some people who
have become mates with others.

obviously, mark.

i find hermann hesse to fit into this perfectly. a brilliant writer who in
the midst of world war II
had nothing but pitty for his country.

the horse i was referring to was that of emotive response. so what if it is
part of coping with this
situation. i dealt with the 'feelings' in a matter of seconds. from that
point, it was imperative to
me
to address the objective issues. 'feeling better' is not an issue for me. i
grew beyond 'feeling
better' many years ago. life is a constant variable for me due to my
understanding of nature,
evolution,
and, human conciousness.

in all honesty, take the greiving to an organized support structure like
"church".
i believe this list to be about the discussion of ideas. and one idea to
note is the hierarchy of
human needs
and how it has crumbled to a silly basic upon the advent of this
catastrophy. not only are we all
talking about it,
but we're all talking about it. and then we are talking about it some more,
and then we are giving
blood, and
then talking about it some more. great. all done here.
