Continue to be helpful, just not to message boards. I think it’s awesome that you posted that stuff. Many people like me are still not aware of all the cool stuff that goes on at your job (even if I don’t know who all the writers are).
Got yer back,

it’s definitely cool, but as you can see, if every person on the list doesn’t attain X degree of coolness, then it will be adjudicated “lame”.
although i must say that adrienne rich has always struck me as too menopausal for my taste. she was like the goddess of the st. joe’s liberal feminist ghetto.
is this the same as that norman mailer thingy, where you guys shovel money into their bank accounts so they can swim in it when they feel bad, or is this different?

I’d love to do it if I had the time. I wish I knew about it years ago, I’m a real big Creeley fan.
People are douchebags. That’s the A to Z of it.
