[OT] Politically Incorrect - Sorry List Mum

2009-12-19 Thread Kay C Lan
Gentle folk,

The donkey's packed and it's time to leave for Bethlehem to be taxed.

Actually I paid my taxes the day before yesterday, we're headed to a place
just north of Eden and the donkey's branded Toyota.

The thing is that this is the last internet I'll have until the New Year so
before I become Listless I'd just like to take this opportunity to wish you
all the very best for Christmas and the most Revolutionary New Year.

To those who are neither Christian or celebrate the New Year based on the
Gregorian calendar, my wishes extend to you as well as I would hope the
world would become more like this List, blind to race, creed, sex, religion,
political bent or whacky opinion.

Thanks to all those who've been so patient to answer my mundane questions,
to gentle point me in the correct direction when I've strayed a little off
track, and politely allowed me to throw what little I know into the ring
when I've plucked up the courage to mix it with a few of the real experts on
this List.

Until 2010, to you and your families, the best of health, the best of times,
be your best for them,

KCL
PS. Sorry List Mum, I guess I'm not suppose to mention religion on this List
but I just LOVE CHRISTMAS TIME :-)

That doesn't strike me as offensively religious; quite the
reverse in fact; after all, if we would just take the time to strip
away the all-too-human accretions of our respective religions
we would find that all of them would have absolutely no problem
with Kay's message:

my wishes extend to you as well as I would hope the
world would become more like this List, blind to race, creed, sex, religion,
political bent or whacky opinion.

I would like to echo those sentiments exactly.

sincerely, Richmond Mathewson.

Echo that from Kauai's Hindu Monastery.

There is so much talk about interfaith, We are part of  the local 
Interfaith Roundtable of Kauai and a team from Hinduism Today has just 
returned from the Parliament of the World's Religions in Australia. It 
was considered such a big deal. In reality, on the ground, outside of 
conferences, or meetings, there is not much collaboration or real dialog 
or co-creation. I've often wished I could go to a RunRev Live 
conference just to say that, romantic as it sounds, that this list 
despite being all about code and a niche software application, 
fulfills,  in a microcosmic way, the higher objectives we would all 
wish  for humanity as a whole: people working together, regardless of 
differences, to help each other and create a better world. Some people 
talk about it, RunRev Revolutionaries do their best to actually do it. 
And it is happening not only here but on many internet collaboration 
sites. (If you were a draftsman using VectorWorks you would find another 
such community.)  The digital fires of software development is helping 
to melt down the icy walls put up by those of a by-gone age.


Wishing everyone the best for the solstice (very special this year as 
there is a conjunction of the earth with the sun and the galactic 
center) and a joyful prosperous 2010.

While we're drifting off topic...

I'm on some astronomy lists, and this month has a few interesting alignments 
(some are past already). Here's a list:

December 6th – Moon near Mars
December 10th – Moon near Saturn
December 13th/14th – Maximum of Geminid Meteor Shower
December 18th – Mercury at Greatest Eastern Elongation; Crescent Moon nearby
December 20th/21st – Jupiter/Neptune Conjunction
December 21st – Moon near Jupiter and Neptune
December 21st – Winter Solstice (17.47 GMT)
December 31st – Partial Eclipse of the Moon (18.52-19.54 GMT)

The Jupiter/Neptine ones interest me the most, because I've seen firsthand 
seven planets (Mercury, Venus, Earth - by looking downwards, Mars, Jupiter, 
Saturn, and Uranus - through my telescope), so Neptune is the only official 
planet I haven't seen. Having Jupiter nearby should help to track it down, 
assuming the NYC snow clouds are gone by then.
