Historycally speaking, this seems to be a rather slow conference ...

... that should have been 'historically' ...

So, enter stuff.

Am I too late?

Nope. That's the beauty of computer conferencing.

Maybe.  But sometimes the patient is dead instead of in suspended animation.

Actually, the author of this item *did* enter some history-related
material after my prodding in response #2.

When people have a conference on their .cflist, there's a wake-up
effect when anybody enters anything at all.

I'll test that. What's an .cflist?

That's conference list.  It routes you through each of the conferences you
have in your list in order showing you the new stuff in each of them.
It saves on the "Oh, my gosh, I forgot to check in to <namethe conference>
again!"

Thanks. I now have a .cflist. My previous ignorance is how history.
Relevance!

I'll make a .cflist too! Maybe that'll at least keep me from having an excuse.

Profound....

We need a solid, earthbound consideration of the windblown history of
mixed metaphors.   Maybe these old bones would then get up and speak out
with a newfound breath...
