A lot like a religious shaman trying to tell me what it means to be an atheist. I will grant that it confirms what I believe about Kurt and in some sense it is reassuring that Kurt remains true to his personality. Hell, folks, so many of us have practically grown old on this forum, are we ever going to mellow out at least a bit? So, on a lighter note: for all my dislike of multi-media and how it has taken over the Internet, I find youtube's collection of music from my teens very enjoyable, in some kind of extreme nostalgia - and the comments from many others who mirror my sentiments also somewhat reassuring (I believe critics call that an "echo chamber"); that's my own idea of "mellowing". On another, weirdly related note, I wonder if anyone else who may be following developments of the Go language have noted the recent shift from email identities that at least resemble human names and surnames to the most extraordinary monikers. I have been subscribed to gerrit's stream of change requests for quite a while and the change has really given me cause for concern. I do plan to stop receiving those notifications as soon as I can figure how to unsubscribe in bulk. My heart goes out to Russ, Rob and Ian Taylor as well as the many others who need to deal with that flow of consciousness.
