I was only partly serious in my post, but serious enough to follow through on my offer. We also did something similar for the whole group when Maharishi died, and I thought that was a very interesting week here on Fairfield Life. There *are* times when you have a lot going on in your life, and (thanks to you, Rick) one of the functions of this cyberplace is a kind of group therapy. Sometimes one can really *need* other people to bounce one's thoughts off of. I think it might also be interesting to see how people USED their Get Out Of Jail Free Cards. Would they be used to perpetuate a slamfest, or to really communicate?
