Welcome To Summer

It is full summer now, the heart of June,
Not yet the sun-burnt reapers are a-stir
Upon the upland meadow where too soon
Rich autumn time, the season's usurer,
Will lend his hoarded gold to all the trees,
And see his treasure scattered by the wild and spendthrift
breeze.
-Oscar Wilde

Hi everybody! You are in the agora conference, in item 1. Item 1 sometimes
gets very long and, well, it's often full of statements like "this is
response
number 100, isn't that exciting?!", which really, of course, isn't all that
exciting. Unless you're the one who got response 100. There are much more
interesting discussions elsewhere on Grex. If you don't want to read through
everything in item 1, press your "q" key at the "press Spacebar for more"
prompt. Then, at the "Respond or pass?" prompt, type "stop". Next, type
"browse", to see a numbered list of item titles. Say items 37 and 53 sound
to you like they're really interesting. At the "Ok:" prompt, type "read 37
53" to see them. Another option instead of "browse" is to type "selections"
to see some items that someone else (probably me) thought were interesting.
If you're using the web interface to the conferences (Backtalk) there is a
button you can click to see a list of the items.
The Agora conference has a lot of interesting discussion in it -- please do
go look for it!
Welcome to Grex!

Hello hello (I'm in the top 5, pretty good for me!)
I'm Anne, a resident of Ann Arbor (technically Pittsfield Township I
guess) and I share an apartment with bhelliom, and two cats (one mine-
Sasha and one hers- Magnus) and an adorably neurotic dog named Loki.
Welcome to Summer!
