I was surprised by the number of people that I mention the Listserve(s) to, (UClist and UCneighbors), and get a blank response. _____________________________________________________________ Yeah, the list has pretty much fell into disuse. Bender does a show and there is no review. Not even a "he sucks", or "he was his usual brilliant self nothing further to report here, move on", The Storm From Hell passes through the Hood and the resident devil err Republican's Wolf Manner is unscathed while carnage can be surveilled everywhere from his front porch. Email about UC is so passe? Recently, Facebook COO Sheryl Sandberg said, "Email is probably going away," Perhaps, she was suggesting people are more comfortable seeing info directed at them in their Facebook News Feed, rather than in their email inboxes. Of course Frank's storm post referred us to Facebook for storm footage. Personally, I blame it all on Glenn and the Barking Cheese Boyz. Glenn can't find anything not to fight over, no matter how sublime. Hey Glenn, in a meeting with the City Controller last week, he told me 80% of the issued trash citations are dismissed by the Board of Adjudication when there is a hearing. Apparently, you're the only person who can't get a break; says a lot for the practice of diplomacy, the use of facts, and leaving your hubris at home. As for the Boyz, when you start every meetup at a bar instead of the gym, you lose your warrior spirit. There is still a place in civil society for hanging someone like Glenn upside down from Little Nell's little finger while the Ambassadors are preoccupied scoping the babes at the Green Line or eating across the street. Gentrification has certainly helped us reap the whirlwind . (http://www.businessinsider.com/facebook-coo-email-is-probably-going-away-2010-6#) Ciao, Craig
