Thanks, Share - I was enabled by the best: the TurquoiseBee and the Author's Friend. Without them I wouldn't be the person I am today - they changed my life. It was a dark and rainy Saturday night when I first discovered them posting to Usenet using a dial-up line and a 14.4 bps modems and AOL or Compuserve back in 1995.
It was like a light lit up inside my head and suddenly, on the spot, I knew I had tapped into a veritable font of insider TMO information. All the secrets were there and all the details were posted about the comings and goings of the TMers. These two had it all figured out - all I had to do was read the screen and I would find the answer I needed. At the time, I really needed some spiritual help. I owe my online enlightenment to these two informants - if it wasn't for them, I probably wouldn't even be here. Some people just feel better when they have someone to talk to. Go figure.

Texan Attack! It's all about the cognitive dissonance, Share. The discomfort experienced when someone simultaneously, both at the same time, holds two or more conflicting cognitions - two or more opposing beliefs, ideas and their material values. Remember - every proposition, when taken to extremes, will be found to be self-contradictory. Sometimes, it can be jarring to read the raw truth on a computer screen. It's complicated. ---In FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com, <sharelong60@...> wrote : feste, it came to me this morning that Richard is like the Don Quixote of yahoo groups (-: From: feste37 <no_re...@yahoogroups.com> To: FairfieldLife@yahoogroups.com Sent: Friday, January 30, 2015 5:34 PM Subject: Re: [FairfieldLife] Re: Moderator!

But this is the problem, he doesn't respond and he never did. By his own admission he's here to cause trouble because we talk about things he doesn't like. I hope everyone ignores him.
