I'm not sure why anyone reads it. <br /><br />It's the same way "out there" too. At residency there's a "author reading time" where everyone gathers in the bar and people read from their work. Everyone loves the funny stuff. The serious stuff gets just polite golf-clapping. <br /><br />Of course, that might be because it's ten at night after 13 hours of classes and we're in a bar.

I don't like to always be first to post, usually my name is the last one in, but most of the time I will just let it flow and be myself. I'm not good at questions in general. You have probably noticed I don't join in on a lot of things where there is a puzzle to solve. I like to slowly ponder things through sometimes.
